Kata Pengantar
Alhamdulillahirabil’alamin. Ucapan syukur kepada Allah SWT sebagai wujud syukur atas
terselenggaranya Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa, Sastra, dan Pengajarannya (SEMNAS KBSP) IV 2016
dengan tema “Analisis Wacana Kritis dalam Kajian Bahasa dan Sastra”. Seminar nasional ini
diselenggarakan oleh Program Magister Pengkajian Bahasa, Sekolah Pascasarjana, Universitas
Muhammadiyah Surakarta bekerja sama dengan Balai Bahasa Jawa Tengah sebagai agenda tahunan.
Seminar ini diharapkan mampu memberi kontribusi terhadap peningkatan kualitas kajian bahasa, sastra,
dan pengajarannya.
Penyelenggaraan seminar ini berpijak pada latar belakang bahwa bahasa memiliki fungsi yang sangat
penting bagi masyarakat pemakainya. Bahasa digunakan dalam berkomunikasi dan berinteraksi antara
sesama masyarakat sekitar, seetnik, sebangsa, bahkan sedunia. Dalam fungsinya yang kompleks itu
munculah fenomena pemakaian bahasa yang kompleks juga. Kompleksitas itu mengarahkan, mengajak,
menggelitik, dan mendorong para ilmuwan untuk mengkajinya sehingga memunculkan berbagai paradigma,
teori, dan paham yang beragam pula. Muncullah teori linguistik struktural, transformasional, relasional,
tagmemik, fungsional, dan lain-lain. Salah satu teori linguistik yang urgen untuk dikaji adalah analisis
wacana kritis, baik dalam ranah pemaknaan teks maupun linguistik sistemik fungsional.
Dikatakan urgen karena banyaknya teks yang memiliki berbagai latar belakang dan konteks, baik itu
dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Indonesia, dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris di Indonesia pada Kurikulum
2013 yang berbasis genre/teks, maupun pada berbagai variasi pemakaian bahasa. Konsep kebahasaan yang
mendasari pembelajaran berbasis teks adalah sistemik fungsional. Oleh karenanya, linguistik sistemik
fungsional ini sangat urgen untuk dikaji dari berbagai perspektif, seperti perspektif konseptual,
pembelajaran, variasi bahasa, dan perspektif penelitian. Beberapa pertanyaan berikut muncul. Bagaimana
konsep dan penerapannya dalam pengembangan kurikulum, pengembangan materi ajar, dan pembelajaran
Bahasa & sastra di tingkat SD, SMP, SMA, dan PT. Bagaimana kajian Bahasa dan sastra berbasis linguistik
sistemik fungsional dalam berbagai variasi bahasa seperti bahasa: bisnis, politik, hukum, agama, dan IPTEK.
Pertanyaan-pertanyaan ini menarik untuk dikaji agar mendapat jawabannya.
Dalam seminar nasional ini kami mengundang 3 pemakalah utama dan 71 pemakalah pendamping.
Ketiga pemakalah utama adalah Prof. Riyadi Santosa, Ph.D. (guru besar Universitas Sebelas Maret), Dr.
Triwiratno (Universitas Sebelas Maret), dan Prof. Dr. Endang Fauziati (guru besar Universitas
Muhammadiyah Surakarta). Sementara itu, ke-71 pemakalah pendamping dan para peserta seminar hadir
dari berbagai wilayah di Indonesia. Para pemakalah pendamping dan peserta berasal dari beberapa instansi,
diantaranya Universitas Muhammadiyah Tasikmalaya, Universitas Negeri Malang, Universitas Widya
Dharma, IAIN Surakarta, Akademi Bahasa Asing Harapan Bangsa, Univet Sukoharjo, Universitas
Muhammadiyah Surakarta, SMP Negeri 1 Tawangsari, SMP Negeri 4 Cipari, MTs PPMI Assalam
Sukoharjo, MTs N Sragen, SMP Muhammadiyah 10 Tasikmalaya, dan MTs. Negeri Tanon, dan lain-lain.
Sebagai hasil dari seminar nasional ini, makalah diterbitkan dalam bentuk prosiding dan
dipublikasikan secara online dalam publikasi ilmiah UMS. Akhirnya, kami menyampaikan terima kasih atas
peran serta Bapak/Ibu/Saudara, baik sebagai pemakalah maupun sebagai peserta dalam kegiatan seminar ini.
Kami menyadari bahwa kegiatan ini memiliki kekurangan dan kelemahan yang berdampak pada
ketidaknyamanan dalam seminar ini. Oleh karena itu, permohonan maaf kami sampaikan atas
ketidaknyamanan dimaksud. Kami menerima saran dan kritik yang membangun sebagai masukan dan bahan
pertimbangan demi perbaikan kegiatan serupa pada tahun-tahun mendatang.

Abstrak
Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional (LSF) telah lama dijadikan landasan filosofis pengembangan
kurikulum dan materi ajar bahasa. Atas dasar teori genre di bawah kerangka LSF, juga dirumuskan
pendekatan mengajar yang disebut Genre Based Approach atau Pembelajaran Berbasis Teks. Materi
ajar yang digunakan pada pendekatan tersebut adalah teks dalam berbagai jenis. Kurikulum yang
dikembangkan diarahkan pada penciptaan teks oleh pembelajar dan cara memanfaatkan teks tersebut
pada konteks sosial-budaya yang melingkupinya.
Kata kunci: kurikulum, genre, materi ajar, teks
1. Pendahuluan
Kurikulum adalah “an overall plan for a course or programme” atau “the total programme of
formal studies offered by a school or institution” (Richards & Schmidt, 2010: 151-152).
Pengembangan kurikulum di sekolah atau institusi meliputi faktor-faktor: (1) analisis kebutuhan
pembelajar; (2) tujuan pembelajaran yang akan dicapai; (3) pengembangan materi ajar dari segi
kandungan (content) dan urutan pembelajaran; (4) prosedur pembelajaran; (5) penilaian terhadap
capaian pembelajaran; serta (6) evaluasi terhadap keseluruhan program pada kurikulum tersebut
(Richards, 2001: 41).
Pembahasan lebih lanjut pada tulisan ini difokuskan pada faktor ketiga dan keempat. Ini tidak
berarti bahwa faktor-faktor yang lain diabaikan. Sesungguhnya pengembangan faktor ketiga dan
keempat dengan sendirinya memasukkan faktor pertama, kedua, dan kelima, karena untuk memenuhi
tujuan pembelajaran dan capaian dalam penilaian, materi ajar harus dirancang dan disajikan sesuai
dengan kebutuhan pembelajar. Sementara itu, faktor keenam adalah faktor adalah alat untuk
mengetahui tingkat keberhasilan pelaksanaan program pendidikan secara keseluruhan.
Pengembangan materi ajar dapat dituangkan ke dalam bentuk silabus, dan prosedur pembelajaran
pada dasarnya adalah metode. Dari sini dapat dikemukakan bahwa dalam proses pembelajaran pada
kurikulum, dua hal penting yang selalu menjadi pertimbangan adalah materi ajar (what to teach) dan
prosedur penyampaian materi ajar tersebut (how to teach). Materi ajar adalah kandungan yang
dipelajari, sedangkan prosedur berkenaan dengan model pembelajaran yang diterapkan. Secara umum,
kedua hal tersebut dikaitkan dengan pendekatan, metode, dan teknik. Pada konteks ini, dapat dipahami
apabila Bernstein (2003: 71) mengajukan definisi kurikulum sebagai “the principle by which certain
periods of time and their contents are brought into a special relationship with each other”.
Dalam kurikulum bahasa yang didasarkan pada LSF, materi ajar yang disampaikan adalah bahasa
sebagai teks, bukan bahasa sebagai aturan-aturan gramatika secara lepas-lepas, dan sesuatu yang
19 20 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 diterapkan untuk meyampakan materi ajar itu adalah model pembelajaran yang sesuai dengan prinsipprinsip teks. Model pembelajaran tersebut terdiri atas empat tahap, yaitu pembanguan konteks,
pemodelan teks, penyusunan teks bersama, dan penyusunan teks mandiri. Melalui keempat tahap itu,
teks yang dijadikan model dieksplorasi dalam hal struktur teks dan unsur-unsur gramatika atau unsurunsur kebahasaan yang ada di dalamnya, yang pada akhirnya dijadikan pedoman bagi pembelajar
untuk menciptakan teks sendiri.
Untuk mengetahui posisi LSF dalam pengembangan kurikulum dan materi ajar, di bawah ini
perlu diuraikan terlebih dahulu perbandingan antara teori LSF dan teori linguistik lain yang mendasari
pengembangan selama ini. Selain itu, karena teori linguistik menjadi pendekatan atau landasan
filosofis, berikut ini juga perlu diuraikan pengertian pendekatan, metode, dan teknik pembelajaran –
yang kemudian dikontraskan dengan model pembelajaran dengan empat tahap tersebut.
2. Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional sebagai Landasan Filosofis Pengembangan Kurikulum dan
Materi Ajar
Kurikulum bahasa yang diterapkan di suatu negara dikembangkan berdasarkan terori linguistik
tertentu. Sejak akhir tahun 1980-an LSF telah banyak diterapkan sebagai landasan filosofis
pembelajaran bahasa (Halliday, 1985; Halliday, 1994; Halliday & Matthiessen, 2004; Halliday &
Matthiessen, 2014; Christie, 1989). Bahkan jauh sebelum itu, pada awal tahun 1960-an, nama Halliday
(1961; 1965; Halliday, McIntosh, & Strevens, 1964) telah disebut-sebut sebagai salah satu pencetus
pengajaran dan pembelajaran bahasa secara fungsional (Richards & Rodgers, 2001: 35, 64, 70; Bloor
& Bloor, 2004).
Mengapa LSF digunakan dalam pengembangan kurikulum dan materi ajar bahasa? LSF adalah
linguistik yang mendeskripsikan cara pemilihan bentuk-bentuk gramatika pada konteks penggunaan
bahasa sebagai teks. Adapun yang dimaksud teks (wacana)1 adalah “language doing its job” (Halliday
& Hasan, 1989), atau “language functioning in context” (Halliday & Matthiessen, 2014: 3), atau
satuan bahasa yang dapat dimediakan secara lisan atau tulis dengan struktur teks tertentu untuk
mengungkapkan makna dalam konteks tertentu pula (Wiratno, 2002; Wiratno, 2003b; Wiratno, 2009).
Dengan pengertian SFL dan teks seperti itu, sudah barang tentu bentuk-bentuk gramatika tidak diajarkan
secara lepas-lepas sebagai pengetahuan tentang bahasa (teori linguistik), tetapi diajarkan sebagai cara
berbahasa dengan memilih bentuk-bentuk gramatika itu dalam teks yang sesuai dengan tujuan atau
fungsi sosial teks tersebut.
Menurut LSF, bahasa mempunyai tiga fungsi: ideasional, interpersonal, dan tekstual. Ketiga fungsi
tersebut tidak berdiri sendiri-sendiri. Ketiga-tiganya merupakan satu kesatuan metafungsi. Oleh karena
itu, sebuah tuturan kebahasaan, misalnya yang berbentuk klausa, mengemban tiga fungsi itu sekaligus.
1
Pada tulisan ini teks dan wacana dianggap sama. Untuk menghemat ruang, perdebatan tentang kedua hal tersebut tidak dikemukakan di sini. Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 21 Dengan kata lain, meskipun wujud klausa itu hanya satu, klausa yang satu itu harus dilihat dari
kapasitasnya yang mempunyai tiga fungsi sekaligus. (Lihat uraian dalam Contoh 1 dan 2). Hubungan
antara ketiga fungsi dalam metafungsi dan realitas-realitas yang berbeda dapat diringkas pada Tabel 1
sebagai berikut.

(Martin, 1996)
Dapat dijelaskan bahwa bahasa merupakan konstruksi realitas fisik/biologis, realitas sosial, dan
realitas simbol, yang secara bersama-sama menjadi fondasi tempat fungsi ideasional, fungsi
interpersonal, dan fungsi tekstual bekerja. Secara realitas fisik/biologis, bahasa digunakan untuk
melaporkan isi atau maksud sebagai hasil dari observasi yang dilakukan oleh penutur/penulis. Yang
dilaporkan adalah apapun yang berada di dalam dan di sekitar diri penutur/penulis tersebut. Secara
realitas sosial, bahasa digunakan untuk melakukan peran yang diemban oleh penutur/penulis dan
pengengar/ pembaca. Peran tersebut tampak pada kenyataan bahwa bahasa merupakan alat untuk
menjalin dan sekaligus memapankan hubungan sosial. Secara realitas semiotis/simbol, bahasa
mengungkapkan isi (hasil observasi) melalui bentuk-bentuk gramatika (teks) yang sesuai dengan
tujuan pengungkapan tersebut. Pada kerangka ini, terdapat relevansi antara isi dan bentuk yang
digunakan untuk mengungkapkannya. Sebagai ilustrasi, Contoh (1) dan (2) menunjukkan bahwa dua
buah klausa yang hanya dibedakan oleh penggunaan boleh dan harus memiliki perbedaan makna yang
sangat mencolok. (Contoh yang sama dengan uraian yang agak berbeda telah disampaikan pada
Wiratno, forthcoming).
(1) Kamu boleh pulang sekarang.
(2) Kamu harus pulang.
Klausa (1) dan (2) mengungkapkan ketiga fungsi dalam kerangka ketiga realitas tersebut secara
simultan. Secara realitas fisik/biologis, dengan Klausa (1), penutur bermaksud menyampaikan hal
yang ia alami bersama pendengar sebagai mitra tuturnya. Secara realitas sosial, klausa yang sama
tersebut menunjukkan hubungan sosial bahwa si penutur menempatkan perannya sejajar dengan si
mitra tutur, dan dengan perannya itu si penutur memberi kelonggaran kepada mitra tuturnya untuk
pulang. Kualitas hubungan sosial antara si penutur dan mitra tuturnya dapat digambarkan bahwa
22 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 dengan klausa itu si mitra tutur dapat menggunakan kelonggaran yang diberikan oleh si penutur.
Artinya, apakah si mitra tutur akan pulang atau tidak bergantung kepada keputusan si mitra tutur itu
sendiri, bukan atas paksaan yang dilakukan oleh si penutur. Kata boleh pada klausa tersebut
menunjukkan pilihan tentang pulang atau tidak. Secara realitas semiotis/simbol, dengan klausa yang
sama pula, si penutur menggunakan bentuk gramatika yang berupa klausa yang memungkinkan isi
yang dikehendaki oleh si penutur tersalurkan dengan baik kepada mitra tuturnya.
Apabila boleh diganti dengan harus, tidak terdapat relevansi antara isi dan peran yang
menunjukkan kelonggaran atau pilihan tersebut. Kata harus mengandung kesan paksaan atau tekanan.
Oleh sebab itu, analisis terhadap ketiga fungsi tersebut tentu akan berbeda, apabila klausa tersebut
berbunyi seperti tersaji pada Klausa (2). Mungkin, realitas fisik/biologis antara Klausa (1) dan (2)
sama, sehingga isi yang terungkap dari kedua klausa itu juga sama. Namun demikian, dari sisi realitas
sosial, pada Klausa (2), si penutur memanfaatkan peran superiornya untuk memaksa si mitra tutur
untuk pulang; tidak seperti pada Klausa (1), peran sejajar si penutur digunakan untuk memberikan
kelonggaran dalam bentuk pilihan, yaitu pulang atau tidak pulang. Dari sisi realitas semiotis atau
simbol, bentuk klausa yang mengandung harus itu dipilih untuk menunjukkan relevansi antara isi yang
dimaksudkan dan peran superior yang menghasilkan paksaan.
Setiap klausa dipastikan mengemban ketiga fungsi tersebut secara simultan. Dengan demikian,
analisis terhadap klausa yang hanya mementingkan satu atau dua dari ketiga fungsi tersebut, dengan
meninggalkan satu atau dua fungsi lainnya, tidaklah lengkap dari segi makna yang terungkap.
Alasannya adalah bahwa makna yang dihasilkan dari ketiga fungsi itu pun juga meliputi tiga dimensi,
yaitu: makna ideasional, makna interpersonal, dan makna tekstual. Ketiga dimensi makna itu adalah
semantik (dalam satu kesatuan makna metafungsional) yang diungkapkan oleh bentuk-bentuk
gramatika. Secara teknis, bentuk-bentuk gramatika itu disebut leksikogramatika – yaitu kata-kata
dalam susunan beserta akibat makna yang timbul. Leksikogramatika diungkapkan oleh
fonologi/grafologi.
Seperti tersaji pada Gambar 1, semantik, leksikogramatika, dan fonologi/grafologi berada dalam
sistem stratifikasi hirarkis. Fonologi/grafologi adalah lapis ekspresi yang berupa bentuk, sedangkan
leksikogramatika dan semantik adalah lapis isi sebagai hasil dari ekspresi bentuk. Semantik merupakan
sistem “pe-makna-an”, leksikogramatika merupakan sistem “peng-kata-an”, dan fonologi/grafologi
merupakan sistem “pe-lafal-an/pengungkapan-dalam-bentuk-tulis”. Dengan kata lain, dalam sistem hirarkis
itu, fonologi/grafologi merealisasikan leksikogramatika, dan leksikogramatika merealisasikan
semantik. Atau apabila dibalik, semantik direalisasikan oleh leksikogramatika, dan leksikogramatika
direalisasikan oleh fonologi/grafologi.
Semantik, yang menduduki sistem hirarkis yang tertinggi, adalah sumber pemaknaan (resource for
meaning) yang memungkinkan pengguna bahasa untuk bertindak melalui makna, dan untuk merefleksikan
pengalaman dunia menjadi bermakna (Matthiessen, 1992/1995: 7). Sebagai sumber makna, semantik tidak
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 23 hanya berkenaan dengan makna metafungsional pada tingkat klausa/kalimat, tetapi juga pada tingkat
wacana. Makna pada tataran wacana demikian itu disebut makna wacana (discourse semantics).

berada di luar teks, tetapi strata tersebut tidak dinyatakan secara eksplisit. Sesungguhnya strata itu
adalah register, genre, dan ideologi. Register direalisasikan oleh leksikogramatika; genre
direalisasikan secara bersama-sama oleh register dan leksikogramatika; ideologi direalisasikan secara
bersama-sama oleh genre, register, dan leksikogramatika. Terutama register dan genre diasosiasikan
dengan konteks situasi dan konteks budaya.
Di bawah teori umum LSF, dikembangkan teori genre secara khusus (Martin, 1985; Martin,
1992; Martin, 1997; Martin, 2009). Pada teori LSF dan genre, bahasa selalu digunakan dalam wujud
teks yang dilingkupi oleh konteks situasi dan konteks budaya. Menurut teori ini, mengajarkan bahasa
berarti mengajarkan cara menggunakan bentuk-bentuk gramatika untuk mengungkapkan diri sendiri,
dunia di sekitar, pengalaman, perasaan, dan nilai-nilai sosial-budaya.
Berdasarkan teori genre, Pendekatan Berbasis Teks/Genre yang dicetuskan oleh J.R. Martin
beserta koleganya tersebut juga dikenal dengan sebutan The Sydney School2 (Hyon, 1996), yaitu
pendekatan untuk mengajarkan bahasa yang tidak saja mementingkan kompetensi komunikatif
(communicative competence), tetapi juga kopetensi wacana (discourse competence) yang merupakan
akumulasi dari kompetensi sosio-kultural (socio-cultural competence), kopetensi linguistik (linguistic
competence), dan kompetensi aksional (actional competence).
2
Menurut Hyon (1996), selain dikembangkan di bawah The Sydney School, genre juga dikembangkan di bawah English for Specific Purposes (ESP) dan The New Rhetoric. 24 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Genre dapat dimaknai secara sempit dan secara luas. Secara sempit, genre adalah jenis-jenis teks.
Secara luas, genre adalah proses sosial yang melatarbelakangi terciptanya teks. Oleh Martin (1985,
1992), genre didefinisikan sebagai proses sosial yang berorientasi kepada tujuan yang dicapai secara
bertahap (a staged, goal oriented, social process). Genre merupakan “proses sosial” karena melalui
genre atau teks anggota masyarakat berkomunikasi; genre “berorientasi kepada tujuan” karena orang
menggunakan jenis teks tertentu untuk melakukan sesuatu, misalnya untuk memasak mi instan orang
menggunakan teks prosedur; dan genre dikatakan “bertahap” karena untuk mencapai tujuannya, teks
disusun dalam tahapan-tahapan (Martin & Rose, 2003/2007:7-8). Tahapan-tahapan itu tidak lain
adalah tahapan-tahapan pada struktur teks (Wiratno, 2014a; Wiratno, 2014b). Melalui tahapan-tahapan
itulah tujuan sosial atau fungsi sosial teks dapat dicapai. Sebagai ilustrasi dapat disebutkan bahwa teks
dengan genre eksposisi mempunyai tujuan sosial untuk menyampaikan gagasan agar gagasan itu
diterima oleh pihak lain. Untuk itu, teks eksposisi disusun dengan struktur teks: pernyataan
tesis^argumentasi^pernyataan ulang tesis (Tanda ^ berarti diikuti oleh), seperti tampak pada contoh di
bawah ini. Akan tetapi, perlu dicatat bahwa teks yang berbeda mempunyai tujuan sosial yang berbeda,
serta disusun dengan struktur teks dan bentuk-bentuk gramatika yang berbeda.
Pembentukan Konstitusi Australia
Pernyataan
tesis
Argumentasi
Pernyataan
ulang tesis
Tujuan utama pembentukan Konstitusi Australia sebenarnya diawali
oleh munculnya berbagai harapan dan keinginan untuk melindungi dan
memajukan kepentingan bersama dari masing-masing koloni Australia. ...
Bersamaan dengan itu, terdapat beberapa faktor lain yang menyumbang
kepada keinginan yang mengarah kepada diperlukannya suatu kesatuan di
antara pemerintahan-pemerintahan koloni tersebut.
Faktor pertama adalah melindungi perekonomian Australia melalui
kebijakan pengetatan keuangan. Dalam hal ini, Pemerintah Federal ternyata
mampu mengatur sebuah kebijakan keuangan yang seragam, termasuk
mendirikan sebuah Bank Persemakmuran (Commonwealth Bank). Faktor
kedua adalah masalah pertahanan. Pemerintahan-pemerintahan koloni
mengkhawatirkan adanya kekuatan-kekuatan besar yang akan mengancam
keamanan Australia dengan membentuk koloni-koloni yang berdekatan
dengan wilayahnya. Dalam berbagai waktu, negara-negara besar, seperti
Jerman, Rusia, Perancis, dan Jepang, telah memperlihatkan kecenderungan
tersebut dengan mendirikan koloni-koloni di pulau-pulau yang berdekatan
dengan Australia. Faktor selanjutnya adalah masalah pembatasan imigrasi.
Terdapat tuntutan mengenai perlunya satu kebijakan imigrasi yang dapat
melindungi kaum buruh Australia. Soal ini dimulai dengan kebijakan
Australia Putih (white Australia policy) berdasarkan UU Imigrasi 1901.
Faktor yang terakhir berkaitan dengan masalah nasionalisme. Ketika itu
muncul perasaan bahwa rakyat Australia perlu membangun jati diri mereka
sendiri dan harus bangga terhadap jati diri mereka.
Dengan demikian, tujuan perumusan konstitusi adalah terutama untuk
membentuk suatu pemerintahan yang bersifat nasional, dan pada saat yang
bersamaan, untuk melindungi kepentingan-kepentingan koloni masingmasing, serta sedapat-dapatnya, untuk melestarikan basis kekuasaan mereka
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 25 di koloni-koloni tersebut.
(Diolah dan ditulis ulang dari Sistem Politik Australia, Hamid, 1999: 2-3)
Pada umumnya, ciri-ciri gramatika teks eksposisi adalah sebagai berikut. Ciri-ciri tersebut tidak
nerupakan suatu kebetulan, tetapi tututan yang dipersyaratkan oleh teks tersebut.
(1) Teks eksposisi ditata dengan struktur teks: pernyataan tesis^argumentasi^pernyataan ulang tesis.
(2) Teks eksposisi berisi pandangan pribadi penciptanya. Untuk itu, kata ganti saya atau kita dapat
digunakan, terutama pada saat klaim mengenai sesuatu dibuat. Sebagain orang berpendapat bahwa
penggunaan kata ganti saya dan kita sebaiknya dihindari pada teks ilmiah, tetapi pada konteks ini
justru penggunaan kata ganti tersebut menunjukkan kekuatan klaim yang diajukan.
(3) Terkait dengan Nomor (1) di atas, leksis yang bersifat atitudinal sering digunakan, terutama pada
eksposisi hortatoris.
(4) Teks eksposisi mencakup penggunaan kata kerja material, relasional, dan mental sekaligus. Kata
kerja yang terakhir ini pada umumnya digunakan untuk mengajukan klaim, misalnya dalam
klausa: Saya yakin bahwa … . atau Saya menegaskan bahwa … .
(5) Teks eksposisi memuat argumentasi satu sisi, dan jumlah argumentasi tidak ditentukan. Selain
merupakan milik pencipta teks sendiri, argumentasi dapat dikembangkan dari pendapat umum
yang diambil dari sumber lain, sepanjang sumber itu disebutkan sebagai referensi.
(6) Konjungsi yang banyak dijumpai pada teks eksposisi adalah konjungsi yang digunakan untuk
menata argumentasi, seperti pertama, kedua, alasan yang lain, dan seterusnya; atau konjungsi
yang digunakan untuk memperkuat argumentasi, seperti kenyataan bahwa, bahkan, juga, selain
itu, dan sebagai contoh; atau konjungsi yang menyatakan bubungan sebab akibat, seperti asalkan,
sebelum (yang berarti agar).
(7) Teks eksposisi mengandung modalitas (dapat, mungkin, seharusnya, sebaiknya, dan sejenisnya)
untuk membangun opini yang mengarah kepada saran atau anjuran.
Genre sebagai jenis teks, dapat digolongkan ke dalam genre faktual dan genre
nonfaktual atau genre rekaan. Genre faktual adalah jenis teks yang dibuat berdasarkan
kejadian, peristiwa, atau keadaan nyata yang berada di sekitar lingkungan hidup. Genre
nonfaktual adalah jenis teks yang dibuat berdasarkan imajinasi, bukan berdasarkan kenyataan
yang sesungguhnya. Genre faktual meliputi: laporan, deskripsi, prosedur, rekon (recount),
eksplanasi, eksposisi, dan diskusi. Sementara itu, genre nonfaktual mencakup: rekon, anekdot,
cerita/naratif, dan eksemplum.
Di pihak lain, genre dapat dijelaskan dari sudut pandang makro dan mikro. Nama-nama
genre yang disebutkan di atas: laporan, deskripsi, prosedur, rekon, eksplanasi, eksposisi, dan
26 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 diskusi (untuk yang faktual) dan rekon, anekdot, cerita/narartif, dan eksemplum (untuk genre
nonfaktual) adalah nama-nama genre mikro, yaitu genre yang dapat berdiri sendiri.
Kenyataannya, teks-teks yang dijumpai di masyarakat merupakan campuran dari beberapa
genre mikro. Genre yang digunakan untuk menamai jenis teks itu secara keseluruhan disebut
genre makro (Martin, 1997). Genre makro berfungsi sebagai payung yang membawahi genregenre mikro yang ada di dalamnya. Sebagai contoh, pada teks editorial, nama editorial
sekaligus digunakan sebagai nama genre makro editorial. Di dalam editorial, mungkin
ditemukan campuran genre mikro deskripsi, laporan, eksplanasi, dan rekon. Akan tetapi,
sangat mungkin keseluruhan editorial itu hanya ditulis dengan genre eksposisi atau diskusi.
Dengan demikian, nama genre makronya adalah editorial, dan nama genre mikro yang ada di
dalamnya adalah genre eksposisi atau diskusi.
Pendekatan Berbasis Teks/Genre inilah yang di Indonesia diadopsi ke dalam Kurikulum Berbasis
Kompetensi tahun 2004 untuk Mata Pelajaran Bahasa Inggris pada jenjang SMP dan SMA
(Depdiknas, 2003a, Depdiknas 2003b) dan Kurikulum Berbasis Teks tahun 2013 untuk Mata Pelajaran
Bahasa Inggris dan Bahasa Indonesia pada jenjang yang sama. Dari kenyataan ini, dapat dikatakan
bahwa LSF menjadi landasan filosofis dalam pembuatan kurikulum di Indonesia, khususnya untuk
Mata Pelajaran Bahasa Inggris dan Bahasa Indonesia pada SMP dan SMA (Wiratno, forthcoming). Di
pihak lain, pada jenjang perguruan tinggi, LSF juga menjadi dasar pengembangan kurikulum untuk
Mata Kuliah Wajib Umum Bahasa Indonesia yang mulai dilaksanakan pada tahun 2014 (Wiratno,
Purnanto, & Damaianti, 2014).
Selain LSF, sudah terdapat teori linguistik lain yang dijadikan landasan. Menurut Richards dan
Rodgers (2001), secara garis besar terdapat tiga kelompok teori linguistik yang mendasari
pembelajaran dan pengajaran bahasa di dunia, yaitu teori struktural (structural view), teori fungsional
(functional view), dan teori interaksionis (interactionist view).
Pada teori struktural, bahasa dianggap sebagai suatu sistem tentang unsur-unsur struktural yang
saling berkaitan untuk menyatakan makna. Pada pandangan ini, pembelajaran bahasa dilihat sebagai
penguasaan unsur-unsur struktural, misalnya dalam hal fonologi (penguasaan fonem), dalam hal
bentuk-bentuk gramatika (penguasaan frasa, klasua, kalimat), dan dalam hal unsur-unsur leksikal
(penguasaan kata-kata inti atau content words dan kata-kata structural atau structure words).
Pembelajar dinyatakan berahsil apabila mereka menguasi unsur-unsur struktural tersebut.
Pada teori fungsional, bahasa dipandang sebagai alat untuk mengungkapkan makna yang sesuai
dengan fungsi yang dikehendaki. Teori ini lebih menekankan unsur-unsur semantik dan komunikatif
daripada hanya unsur-unsur struktural dan gramatikal. Menurut pandangan ini, pembelajaran bahasa
menitikberatkan kandungan bahasa pada fungsi dan makna, bukan pada unsur-unsur struktural dan
gramatikal, meskipun unsur-unsur tersebut tetap dianggap penting.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 27 Pada teori interaksionis, bahasa digunakan sebagai alat untuk merealisasikan hubungan
antarmanusia. Dengan demikian, bahasa dilihat sebagai perwujudan usaha yang dilakukan oleh
penggunanya untuk melangsungkan interaksi sosial.
Baik LSF maupun ketiga kelompok teori itu tidak saja menjadi pedoman untuk menentukan
materi ajar, tetapi juga sekaligus cara menyampaikan materi ajar tersebut. Dengan demikian,
pelaksanaan pembelajaran di kelas secara konseptual dilandasi oleh nilai-nilai filosofis linguistik yang
dianut sebagai pendekatan dengan memilih metode dan teknik yang selaras.
Contoh dokumen kurikulum yang dikembangkan berdasarkan LSF disajikan pada Lampiran 1.
Dokumen tersebut dimaksudkan untuk diterapkan pada Mata Kuliah Wajib Umum Bahasa Indonesia
untuk perguruan tinggi. Ruang lingkup materi yang diberikan berkenaan dengan Bahasa Indonesia
sebagai ekspresi diri dan akademik pada konteks sosial-budaya akademik. Teks-teks yang diberikan
tergolong ke dalam genre makro review, proposal kegiatan, proposal penelitian, laporan kegiatan,
laporan penelitian, dan artikel ilmiah. Teks-teks dengan genre makro tersebut merupakan kelanjutan
dari teks-teks yang telah disajikan di SMP dan SMP yang pada umumnya tergolong ke dalam genre
mikro.
3. Pendekatan, Metode, Teknik
Dalam pengajaran bahasa, pendekatan, metode, dan teknik merupakan tiga komponen yang
sangat erat berhubungan. Ketiga komponen itu bahkan merupakan satu kesatuan yang tidak dapat
dipisah-pisahkan (Anthony, 1963; Lihat pula ulasan Richards & Rodgers, 2001; Pernah disajikan pada
Wiratno, 1995 dan Wiratno, 2013). Richards & Rodgers (2001: 33) menginterpretasikan satu kesatuan
ini dengan menggunakan empat istilah: metode, pendekatan, disain, dan prosedur. Bagi mereka,
metode menempati posisi yang paling atas dan membawahi ketiga lainnya.
3.1 Pendekatan
Pendekatan ialah cara memandang pengajaran dan pembelajaran bahasa atas dasar asumsi
terhadap hakikat bahasa. Secara aksiomatis, pendekatan membentangkan peta tentang apa yang akan
diajarkan kepada pembelajar (Anthony, 1963: 64). Dengan kata lain, pendekatan berkenaan dengan
filsafat atau teori kebahasaan yang mendasari pengajaran yang dilaksanakan di depan kelas. Seperti
akan disajikan di bawah ini, Pendekatan Mengajar Berbasis Teks/Genre dilandasi oleh LSF yang
dirintis oleh M.A.K. Halliday, dan lebih khusus lagi teori genre yang dikemukakan oleh J.R. Martin.
Dapat digarisbawahi bahwa hingga saat ini, teori kebahasaan yang mendasari kegiatan
pembelajaran bahasa di dunia dikelompokkan menjadi empat, yaitu teori struktural, teori fungsional,
teori interaksionis, dan teori LSF. Akan tetapi, pada kenyataannya dimungkinkan bahwa teori kedua
dan ketiga digabungkan. Sebagaimana diuraikan di bawah ini, penggabungan itu terjadi misalnya pada
Pendekatan Komunikatif (Communicative Approach). Selain itu, dapat dikatakan bahwa pada
dasarnya Pendekatan Mengajar Berbasis Teks/Genre adalah Pendekatan Komunikatif Plus.
28 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 3.2 Metode
Metode ialah tata cara penyajian materi yang bersifat prosedural (Anthony, 1963: 65). Apabila di
satu sisi pendekatan berkenaan dengan teori tertentu yang digunakan sebagai pijakan untuk
melaksanakan kegiatan belajar mengajar, di sisi lain, metode berkenaan dengan penerapan teori tadi
sesuai dengan tataran kebahasaan yang dipilih, tujuan yang akan dicapai, penentuan ketrampilan
berbahasa yang dirpioritaskan, isi materi yang akan diajarkan, dan susunan (urutan) yang ditentukan
untuk menyampaikan isi materi itu.
Dari keterangan di atas, dapat digarisbawahi bahwa bagian-bagian yang ada pada metode tidak
akan saling berkontradiksi, dan di dalam satu pendekatan mungkin terdapat berbagai macam metode.
Sebagai contoh, di bawah payung teori struktural lahirlah antara lain Pendekatan Oral (Oral
Approach) atau Pendekatan Situasional (Situational Approach), Metode Penerjemahan Tata Bahasa
(Grammar-Translation Method), Metode Audiolingual (Audiolingual Method), Metode Respons Fisik
Total (Total Physical Response), dan Metode Diam (Silent Way). Perlu dicatat bahwa untuk kedua
nama yang disebut pertama, istilah pendekatan dan metode sering dipertukarkan.
Di bawah teori fungsional lahirlah Pendekatan Alamiah (Natural Approach), konsep Silabus
Nosional dan Fungsional (Notional and Functional Syllabus, misalnya oleh Wilkins, 1976), konsep
pengajaran ESP (English for Specific Purposes), dan konsep-konsep pengajaran bahasa yang
didasarkan pada kebutuhan pembelajar (needs analysis). Pada nama Pendekatan Alamiah, pengertian
pendekatan dan metode dipertukarkan.
Pendekatan Komunikatif (Communicative Approach) dapat dogolongkan ke dalam pendekatan
yang lahir dari teori fungsional, meskipun sesungguhnya metode ini tidak hanya diformulasikan dari
teori kebahasaan tersebut, dan lebih merupakan gabungan antara teori fungsional dan teori
interaksional. Selain itu, perlu dikemukakan kembali bahwa istilah communicative yang dipakai pada
metode/pendekatan ini sebenarnya tidak diturunkan dari teori Chomsky (1965) tentang linguistic
competence, yakni kemampuan yang harus dimiliki oleh penutur untuk dapat memproduksi kalimatkalimat yang benar secara gramatikal, tetapi dari teori Hymes (1972) mengenai communicative
competence dan teori Halliday (1970, 1975, 1978) tentang language use and function–yaitu teori yang
menekankan bahwa terdapat seperangkat pengetahuan dan kemampuan yang dibutuhkan oleh penutur
untuk dapat berkomunikasi sesuai dengan fungsi yang diemban oleh bahasa. Tampak bahwa LSF
bahkan telah menjadi salah satu dasar konseptual lahirnya pendekatan mengajar yang disebut
Communicative Approach (Richards & Rodgers, 2001: 64, 70).
Pada lingkup teori interaksional, lahirlah beberapa metode antara lain Pendekatan Analisis
Wacana Kelas (Classroom Discourse Analysis, misalnya, Christie, 2002; Rymes, 2008) dan
Pendekatan Analisis Percakapan (Conversational Analysis, misalnya, Gardner, 2013; Markee, Ed.,
2015). Di sini, pengertian pendekatan dan metode juga dipertukarkan.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 29 Dari teori SFL dan genre, diformulasikanlah Pendekatan Mengajar Berbasis Teks/Genre atau
Genre Based Approach. Teori SFL ditemukan oleh Halliday dan teori genre dikembangkan oleh
Martin beserta koleganya (Martin, 1985; Martin, 1992; Martin, 1997; Martin, 2009; Christie & Martin,
Eds., 1997; Martin & Rose, 2008; Rose & Martin, 2012).
3.3 Teknik
Teknik bersifat implementasional. Artinya, teknik berurusan dengan cara, strategi, atau taktik
pelaksanaan kegiatan pembelajaran di kelas (Anthony, 1963: 66) untuk mencapai tujuan yang telah
ditentukan. Teknik harus sejalan dengan metode yang dipilih dan sekaligus seirama dengan
pendekatan. Dengan demikian, seperti telah diutarakan di atas, pendekatan, metode, dan teknik
merupakan satu kesatuan yang tidak dapat dipisah-pisahkan. Berbagai teknik dapat diterapkan di
kelas, misalnya ceramah, pemberian tugas, diskusi, tanya jawab, kerja kelompok, kerja berpasangan,
bercerita, permainan, penerjemahan, role play, dan teknik apa pun yang sesuai dengan perkembangan
situasi di kelas.
4. Pengembangan Materi Ajar dengan Model Pembelajaran Berbasis Teks/Genre
Teks dimaknai dan dimengerti melalui konteks. Teks mengungkapkan makna sesuai dengan
konteks sosial-budaya yang melingkupinya. Hal ini mengandung implikasi bahwa dalam proses
pembelajaran pada kurikulum yang diberlakukan, pembelajar difasilitasi untuk mengamati, menanya,
mengeksplorasi, menganalisis teks yang dijadikan bahan ajar – yang pada akhirnya pembelajar mampu
memaknai teks tersebut untuk kemudian menciptakan teks sejenis dan mengomunikasikannya baik
secara tulis maupun lisan (Wiratno, 2014b). Sebagaimana telah disebutkan di atas, proses
pembelajaran yang demikian itu direalisasikan melalui empat tahap kegiatan, yaitu: pembangunan
konteks, pemodelan teks, penyusunan teks bersama, dan penyusunan teks mandiri (Rose & Martin,
2012). Contoh dokumen pengembangan materi dalam bentuk silabus atau rancangan pembelajaran
yang sesuai dengan kurikulum berbasis LSF disajikan pada Lampiran 2, dan contoh pengembangan
materi ajar dengan model Pendekatan Berbasis Teks/Genre dapat dilihat pada Lampiran 3.
Rangkaian kegiatan untuk mengamati, menanya, mengeksplorasi, menganalisis, dan
mengomunikasikan hasil analisis pada Kurikulum 2013 dikenal dengan pendekatan saintifik.
Pendekatan saintifik dapat diintegrasikan ke dalam model pembelajaran berbasis teks/genre. Kegiatan
pembelajaran yang dinyatakan dengan verba mengamati, menanya, mengeksplorasi, menganalisis,
mencipta, dan mengomunikasikan dapat dilaksanakan di setiap tahap pembelajaran yang relevan.
Verba-verba tersebut dapat saja berubah-ubah sesuai dengan ciri-ciri teks yang dijadikan bahan ajar.
Salah satu buku yang dapat dijadikan acuan dalam mengintegrasikan verba pembelajaran itu adalah
Functional grammar in the ESL classroom: Noticing, exploring and practicing (Lock & Jones, 2011).
30 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Gambar 2. Siklus pembelajaran
(Diambil dari Martin, 2009:16)
Sebagaimana terlihat pada Gambar 2, keempat tahap itu berlangsung secara siklus, dan karenanya
dapat disebut sebagai siklus pembelajaran. Guru yang bertindak sebagai fasilitator dapat memulai
kegiatan belajar-mengajar dari tahap mana pun, meskipun pada umumnya tahap-tahap itu ditempuh
secara urut. Selain itu, apabila kegiatan belajar-mengajar mengalami kesulitan pada tahap tertentu,
misalnya pembuatan teks secara bersama-sama, guru boleh mengarahkan pembelajar untuk kembali
kepada tahap pemodelan.
4.1 Pembanguan Konteks
Pembangunan konteks dimaksudkan sebagai langkah-langkah awal yang dilakukan oleh guru
bersama pembelajar untuk mengarahkan pemikiran ke dalam pokok persoalan yang akan dibahas pada
setiap pelajaran. Aktivitas apa pun dapat dibangkitkan dari diri pembelajar untuk menuju kepada
kesiapan pembelajar, baik dari segi isi teks maupun dari segi unsur-unsur gramatika yang akan
digunakan dalam teks tersebut. Apersepsi dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu cara untuk membangun
konteks, meskipun apersepsi tidak sama dengan pembangunan konteks. Cara yang lain adalah diskusi,
kerja kelompok, tanya jawab, atau ceramah.
4.2 Pemodelan Teks
Tahap pemodelan adalah tahap yang berisi tentang pembahasan teks yang diberikan sebagai
model pembelajaran. Pembahasan diarahkan kepada struktur teks dan semua unsur gramatika yang
membentuk teks itu secara keseluruhan. Pada tahap ini, aktivitas yang dilakukan oleh pembelajar di
bawah fasilitasi guru adalah mendekonstruksi teks, sehingga pembelajar betul-betul memahami teks
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 31 teksebut baik isinya maupun unsur-unsur gramatika yang digunakan untuk mengungkapkan isi
tersebut dalam kerangka struktur teks yang ada. Tugas dan latihan yang dapat kembangkan adalah
antara lain:
(1) mengidentifikasi struktur teks;
(2) mengidentifikasi partisipan (manusia atau bukan manusia);
(3) mengidentifikasi jenis kata (nomina, verba, adjektiva, dan adverbia) dan jenis klausa/kalimat
(deklaratif/imperatif; aktif/pasif) yang paling dominan dalam teks;
(4) mengidentifikasi konjungsi yang digunakan;
(5) menafsirkan isi teks secara keseluruhan.
4.3 Penyusunan Teks Bersama
Pada tahap ini pembelajar bersama-sama pembelajar lain dan guru sebagai fasilitator menyusun
kembali teks seperti yang ditunjukkan sebagai model. Inti tahap ini adalah bahwa pembelajar belum dapat
menyusun teks secara mandiri, sehingga pembelajar masih memerlukan bantuan dari pihak lain. Tugas dan
latihan yang diberikan berupa menyusun teks dengan memanfaatkan semua aspek kebahasaan yang sesuai
dengan ciri-ciri yang dituntut pada jenis teks yang dimaksud. Tugas dan latihan lebih lanjut yang dapat
dieksplorasi adalah antara lain:
(1) menulis ulang teks yang dijadikan model menurut cara pembelajar sendiri, misalnya dengan memotong
klausa/kalimat menjadi lebih pendek-pendek, menggabungkan beberapa klausa/kalimat menjadi satu,
atau mengubah teks tersebut tanpa mengabaikan isinya;
(2) mengurutkan klausa/kalimat yang disusun secara acak untuk dijadikan paragraph yang bermakna;
(3) menata ulang paragraf-paragraf dalam teks lain (selain yang dijadikan model) yang disusun secara
acak;
(4) menyelesaikan teks yang belum selesai disusun;
(5) memperbaiki teks lain yang kurang baik untuk dijadikan teks yang memimiliki struktur teks dan ciriciri gramatika seperti yang didapati pada teks model.
4.4 Penyusunan Teks Mandiri
Pada tahap ini, pembelajar diharapkan dapat mengaktualisasikan diri dengan menggunakan teks sesuai
dengan jenis dan ciri-ciri seperti yang ditunjukkan pada model. Pembelajar sudah mampu menyusun teks
secara mandiri tanpa bantuan dari pihak luar. Kemandirian itu antara lain ditunjukkan dari pemilihan tema
teks, pengumpulan bahan-bahan penyusunan teks (misalnya, dari media cetak atau elektronik), dan
pengolahan bahan-bahan tersebut untuk disusun menjadi teks. Seandainya teks yang dihasilkan belum
sesuai dengan harapan, pembelajar diminta untuk memperbaikinya dengan berorientasi kepada teks yang
dijadikan model. Pembelajar diminta kembali untuk menyusun ulang dengan memperhatikan struktur teks
dan unsur-unsur gramatika yang menjadi tuntutan teks tesebut.
32 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 5. Catatan Penutup: Implikasi
Pengembangan kurikulum berbasis LSF dan penerapan Pendekatan Berbasis Teks/Genre
mengandung implikasi yang seharusnya disikapi secara serius oleh berbagai pihak yang terkait.
Melalui beragam kegiatan pada keempat tahap pembelajaran, kegiatan analisis wacana dengan
sendirinya juga berlangsung. Sebelum pembelajar dapat mencapai tujuan akhir pembelajaran, yaitu
menyusun teks secara mandiri, pada tahap pemodelan dan penyusunan teks bersama sebelumnya,
mereka pada dasarnya melakukan analisis wacana di kelas (Christie, 2002; Christie, 1989; Rymes,
2008) dengan mendekonstruksi dan merekonstruksi teks (Wiratno, 2001; Wiratno, 2003a). Proses
analisis, dekonstruksi, dan rekonstruksi berlangsung secara terus-menerus sampai teks yang
diharapkan berhasil diproduksi oleh pembelajar.
Perlu diketahui bahwa analisis LSF adalah analisis wacana, dan Halliday (sebagai orang yang
menemukan LSF) adalah nama yang paling banyak disebut pada pembicaraan tentang analisis wacana
(Bloor, 2005). Selain itu, tidak dapat disangkal bahwa analisis wacana dari sudut pandang LSF adalah
juga salah satu model Analisis Wacana Kritis (AWK) (Young & Harrison, 2004; Hyland & Paltridge,
Eds., 2011; Baker & Ellece, 2011; Tannen, Hamilton, & Schiffrin, Eds, 2015). Secara prinsip, AWK
adalah pendekatan analisis wacana yang menerapkan pandangan kritis terhadap penggunaan bahasa
dalam teks baik lisan maupun tulis untuk mengidentifikasi nilai-nilai atau ideologi yang terkandung di
dalamnya. Analisis diarahkan untuk menyingkap hubungan kekuasaan dalam konteks sosial dan
institusional sebagaimana tercermin pada cara penutur menggunakan bahasa pada teks yang
dihasilkannya (Hyland & Paltridge, Eds., 2011; Baker & Ellece, 2011: 26).
Dengan demikian, dapat dikatakan bahwa pengembangan kurikulum dan materi ajar yang
didasarkan pada LSF berserta Pendekatan Berbasis Teks/Genre adalah pengembangan yang tidak
dapat dilepaskan dari kegiatan AWK. Sebagai bukti dari pernyataan tersebut dapat disimak hasil-hasil
penelitian yang dilaporkan secara khusus pada: Writing science: Literacy and discursive power
(Halliday & Martin, 1993) dan Reading science: Critical and functional perspective on discourses of
science (Martin & Veel, Eds., 1998). Buku pertama berisi tentang studi mendalam mengenai bahasa
pada ilmu pengetahuan yang melaporkan hasil-hasil penelitian tentang teks ilmiah yang dilihat dari
tataran: leksikogramatika, makna wacana, register, genre, dan ideologi. Sementara itu, buku kedua
adalah kumpulan tulisan dari para ahli di bidang LSF, retorika, teori kritis, dan pendidikan dalam
melihat bahasa untuk ilmu pengetahuan yang dikaitkan dengan cara memahaminya secara ilmiah.
Pembahasan lain yang sejalan dengan bukti tersebut dapat dicermati dari hasil-hasil penelitian
wacana ilmiah seperti dilaporkan antara lain pada Mathematical discourse: Language, symbolism and
visual images (O’Halloran, 2005), Historical discourse: The language of time, cause and evaluation
(Coffin, 2006), Academic and professional discourse genres in Spanish (Parodi, 2010), dan artikel
yang berjudul “Discourse in educational settings” (Adger & Wright, 2015). Dengan menyerhanakan
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 33 persoalan, dapat dikatakan bahwa tulisan-tulisan tersebut berkenaan dengan “apa” yang dikerjakan
oleh guru dan pembelajar di sekolah dengan teks di berbagai disiplin dan “bagaimana” mereka
melakukannya secara kritis, serta “sejauh mana” pandangan AWK dapat membantu mereka dalam
memperoleh pemahaman pengetahuan dengan lebih baik.
Adapun salah buku yang dapat dijadikan panduan untuk melakukan analisis terhadap wacana
akademik dengan pendekatan AWK secara LSF adalah Scientific literacy for participation: A systemic
functional approach to analysis of school science discourses (Knain, 2015). Buku ini didesain secara
khusus untuk peneliti pemula (termasuk mahasiswa S2) yang akan melakukan penelitian di bidang
wacana di sekolah. Di dalamnya, dijelaskan bahwa AWK dapat menggali makna kultural-ideologis
dalam teks di satu sisi, dan dapat menunjukkan proses pembelajaran di sekolah dengan
mengkondisikan pembelajar untuk menciptakan makna melalui teks, di sisi lain.

MODEL PEMBELAJARAN BAHASA INDONESIA
Bab 2 sebagai Contoh
A. Tujuan Bab II
(1) Dosen hendaknya memperhatikan bahwa Bab II dijabarkan menjadi 2 pokok pembahasan sebagai
berikut:
4.
5.
Pengertian genre makro ulasan buku
Struktur teks, hubungan genre, dan leksikogramatika ulasan
buku
(Diambil dari Rancangan Pembelajaran)
(2) Sebagai prasyarat dosen hendaknya memahami seluk-beluk teks/genre dan prinsip-prinsip
pembelajaran bahasa berbasis teks/genre, yang ditempuh dengan empat tahap, yaitu: (a)
pembangunan konteks, (b) pemodelan, (c) pembangunan teks bersama, dan (d) pembangunan teks
mandiri.
(3) Ulasan merupakan teks yang berfungsi untuk menimbang, menilai, dan mengajukan kritik
terhadap karya atau peristiwa yang diulas tersebut (Gerot & Wignell, 1994; Hyland & Diani,
2009). Pada bab ini, karya yang diulas adalah buku, sehingga tujuan perkuliahan ini adalah
mahasiswa dapat memahami, mengobservasi, mengeksplorasi, menganalisis, dan menciptakan
atau memproduksi teks ulasan buku dengan struktur teks, hubungan genre, dan leksikogramatika
yang sesuai.
(4) Dosen hendaknya mengingatkan mahasiswa bahwa sebagai sebuah genre, teks ulasan buku tidak
hanya berisi deskripsi ringkasan saja, tetapi juga evaluasi terhadap buku itu. Ulasan buku
memaparkan tujuan buku ditulis, menguraikan strukturnya, menjelaskan gaya penulisannya, dan
meletakkan isinya ke dalam konteks yang lebih luas dengan cara membandingkannya dengan
buku-buku lain yang sejenis. Oleh karena itu, menulis teks ulasan buku menuntut pembacaan yang
kritis dan analitis serta menuntut tanggapan personal yang kuat.
(5) Jadi, dalam membuat ulasan buku, mahasiswa perlu diarahkan untuk menggabungkan kemahiran
menguraikan isi buku, menganalisis bagaimana buku memenuhi tujuannya bagi pembaca, dan
mengekspresikan reaksi mahasiswa sendiri. Secara keseluruhan, proses menguraikan,
menganalisis, dan mengekspresikan pandangan personal melalui teks ulasan ini dapat disebut
mengevaluasi buku (Hyland & Diani, 2009). Kata kunci yang perlu Anda pegang ketika akan
menulis ulasan buku adalah menilai atau mengevaluasi.
B. Model Pembelajaran
Kegiatan 1 (Bagian A): Pembangunan Konteks Teks Ulasan Buku
(1) Dosen membuka perkuliahan dan menjelaskan bahwa pokok persoalan yang akan dieksplorasi
adalah “Menjelajah Dunia Pustaka” dengan pusat perhatian pada “Ulasan Buku”. Mahasiswa
diminta untuk membuka Bab II.
(2) Dosen memotivasi mahasiswa dengan mengajak berdiskusi tentang kata-kata kunci yang terkait
dengan ulasan buku, yaitu:
40 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 mengulas, ulasan
menguraikan, uaraian,
menilai, penilaian, mengevaluasi, evaluasi
mengeksplorasi, eksplorasi
unggul, keunggulan, positif
lemah, kelemahan, negatif, dst.
(3) Dosen membagi kelas ke dalam beberapa kelompok, dan meminta mereka untuk mendiskusikan
sejumlah persoalan (yang diambil dari halaman 46) di bawah ini. Mahasiswa diminta untuk
menambahkan pertanyaan-pertanyaan mereka sendiri.
TUGAS:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
Tahukah Anda bahwa ada teks yang tergolong ke dalam genre ulasan?
Seandainya genre ulasan diberi nama lain, nama apa saja yang sering Anda
jumpai?
Di media apa Anda dapat menemukan genre ulasan?
Apakah yang dapat diulas itu hanya teks? Dapatkah peristiwa atau
pertunjukan diulas? Apabila yang diulas teks, teks apa saja yang dapat
diulas?
Pada saat Anda mengulas sebuah teks, apa yang sesungguhnya Anda
kerjakan? Bagaimana Anda menata hasil ulasan Anda?
(4) Mahasiswa diminta untuk membuat simpulan berdasarkan jawaban-jawaban terhadap pertanyaanpertanyaan tersebut. Simpulan itu akan dikonfirmasikan nanti pada saat atau setelah proses
berikutnya dilakukan.
Kegiatan 2 (Bagian B): Pemodelan Teks Ulasan Buku
(1) Dosen meminta mahasiswa untuk membaca, mengamati, dan menelusuri teks ulasan buku yang
berjudul “Perangi narkoba” (halaman 48-50) dengan memberikan perhatian khusus pada
pertanyaan-pertanyaan di bawah ini. Mahasiswa juga diminta untuk mengajukan pertanyaanpertanyaan mereka sendiri.
TUGAS:
(1)
(2)
(3)
Observasilah teks ulasan buku tentang bahaya penyalahgunaan narkoba
yang berjudul “Perangi narkoba” di bawah ini. Sambil Anda
mengobservasi teks ulasan buku itu, identifikasilah struktur teks dengan
tahapan-tahapan yang membangun teks tersebut.
Eksplorasilah genre-genre mikro yang terdapat dalam teks ulasan buku
tersebut dan fungsi retoris dari masing-masing genre itu.
Formulasi bahasa seperti apa yang dominan pada teks uklasan buku tersebut?
Berikan argumentasi mengapa demikian.

Mencegah bahaya penyalahgunaan narkoba melalui pendidikan
budaya dan karakter bangsa
Suyadi
Penerbit Andi, Yogyakarta
2013
178 halaman + 10 halaman prakata dan daftar isi
Indonesia
Latar putih, merah, dan hitam
(1) Buku ini ditulis oleh Suyadi, seorang
akademisi muda yang banyak bergiat di
dunia pendidikan dengan menjadi staf
pangajar di beberapa universitas di Yogyakarta. Di usianya yang masih tergolong
muda (lahir pada tanggal 7 Agustus 1982),
penulis yang dijuluki “si pendekar pena”
ini bahkan telah menulis lebih dari 40 judul
buku, baik yang sudah terbit maupun yang
masih dalam proses penerbitan.
(2) Buku ini sendiri merupakan pengembangan dari hasil penelitian mengenai
penyalahgunaan narkoba oleh kalangan
siswa/remaja di Yogyakarta. Buku ini
sangat berguna dan perlu dimiliki oleh para
pengampu pendidikan bukan hanya karena
kekayaan data, tetapi juga karena solusi
nyata yang ditawarkan.
Gambar 2.2 Sampul Buku 1
(Sumber: Foto oleh tim penulis)
(3) Buku ini memaparkan data dan fakta seputar penyalahgunaan narkoba di
kalangan remaja/siswa. Melalui sebuah penelitian lapangan, Suyadi berhasil
menemukan lorong-lorong gelap sebagai tempat berlangsungnya praktik
penyalahgunaan narkoba oleh kalangan pelajar. Dari penelitian itu pula, Suyadi
menangkap banyak paradoks penyalahgunaan narkoba di kalangan remaja atau
siswa menengah.
(4) Satu di antara paradoks itu ialah rentannya kalangan remaja/siswa
terperangkap ke dalam penyalahgunaan narkoba, pada satu sisi, padahal bangsa kita
adalah bangsa yang religius serta pendidikan nasional kita mengajarkan karakter
pancasilais, pada sisi lain. Gejala inilah yang menjadi dorongan utama bagi Suyadi
untuk melakukan penelitian saintifik mengenai pola persebaran “penyakit narkoba”
di kalangan remaja/siswa.
(5) Dengan metodologi penelitian yang terukur serta analisis teoretik yang
mendalam, Suyadi menemukan tiga fakta tentang penyalahgunaan narkoba di
kalangan remaja di Yogyakarta. Ketiga fakta itu berkenaan dengan tingginya
penyalahgunaan narkoba di kalangan pelajar, permisifnya guru dan agresifnya
polisi, serta kurang efektifnya penyuluhan narkoba di sekolah. Buku sebagai hasil
penelitian ini juga menjawab pertanyaan tentang mengapa remaja/pelajar rentan
terhadap penyalahgunaan narkoba dan tentang “lorong-lorong gelap” peredaran
narkoba di sekolah. Buku ini juga menyajikan tawaran pemecahan penyalahgunaan
narkoba di sekolah. Semuanya diuraikan secara terperinci dengan disertai ilustrasi,
sehingga mudah ditangkap dan mengesankan. Selain paparan data yang terperinci
41 42 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 kuat dan terperinci, buku ini juga disajikan dengan menggunakan tabel dan gambar
ilustrasi sehingga tampak lebih ilmiah dan menarik.
(6) Banyak sekali keunggulan yang terkandung dalam buku ini. Di antaranya ialah
buku ditulis berdasarkan penelitian dengan metodologi saintifik. Karena
berdasarkan penelitian, yang dituliskan bukan sekadar opini penulis, melainkan
data nyata dan faktual. Selain itu, buku ini memberikan informasi secara terperinci
dengan disertai ilustrasi, sehingga mudah ditangkap dan mengesankan serta
memberi arahan pencegahan penyalahgunaan narkoba. Setidaknya, buku ini sangat
berguna menambah khasanah ilmu, khususnya mengenai narkoba.
(7) Akan tetapi, buku ini juga bukan tanpa kelemahan. Satu ganjalan pertama dalam
membaca buku ini ialah adanya tulisan melingkar (berbentuk seperti stempel)
berbunyi “SMA/MA SMK” pada sampul. Tulisan seperti stempel pada sampul ini
jelas memberi kesan bahwa buku ini hanya untuk siswa setingkat SLTA.
Implikasinya adalah buku ini memberi kesan sebuah buku pelajaran sekolah
(textbook). Padahal buku ini bukanlah buku pedoman yang perlu diajarkan kepada
siswa.
(8) Buku ini, tampaknya, lebih tepat dan bermanfaat bagi para pengampu
pendidikan, misalnya pemerintah sebagai pengelola sekolah, guru/pendidik, dan
orang tua untuk dijadikan sebagai acuan membuat suatu kebijakan pendidikan.
Berbeda dengan buku ini, buku yang berjudul Remaja dan bahaya narkoba – untuk
Sekolah Lanjutan Atas (Abdul Rozak dan Wahdi Sayuti) ditujukan bagi pelajar dan
pembaca remaja. Jika buku yang disebut pertama menitikberatkan pada praktik
penyalahgunaan narkoba, buku yang disebut belakangan membahas berbagai hal
yang berkaitan dengan definisi narkoba, jenis-jenisnya, dan bahaya serta sanksi
bagi para pemakai, pengedar, dan pembuatnya. Kemudian, jika buku pertama lebih
mengedepankan pendidikan karakter sebagai upaya mencegah penyalahgunaan
narkoba di kalangan pelajar, buku kedua mengutamakan pendekatan agama dan
pengetahuan terhadap sanksi hukum bagi pelajar sebagai upaya mencegah
penyalahgunaan narkoba.
(9) Meskipun terdapat perbedaan dalam hal pendekatan, kedua buku tersebut
ditulis sebagai upaya penyebaran virus-virus positif untuk mencegah para pelajar
agar tidak terjerumus ke dalam penyalahgunaan narkoba.
(10) Buku Mencegah bahaya penyalahgunaan narkoba melalui pendidikan budaya
dan karakter bangsa sangat berguna, khususnya bagi para pengampu pendidikan
dan pembuat kebijakan sekolah. Informasi terperinci tentang fakta penyalahgunaan
narkoba di kalangan remaja/pelajar dapat dijadikan landasan dalam berupaya untuk
memerangi penyalahgunaan narkoba di sekolah-sekolah. Jadi, upaya Suyadi dalam
menguak dan menyingkap “lorong-lorong gelap” peredaran narkoba di sekolah
patut diberi apresiasi dan acungan jempol.
(2) Dosen membimbing mahasiswa untuk merumuskan hasil diskusi mereka bahwa teks ulasan buku
ditata menurut struktur teks sebagai berikut. Dosen memotivasi mahasiswa untuk sampai kepada
kesadaran bahwa struktur teks adalah struktur berpikir.

Kegiatan 3 (Bagian C): Pembangunan Teks Ulasan Buku secara Bersama-sama
(1) Pada kegiatan ini, mahasiswa belum dapat membuat teks ulasan buku sendiri. Oleh sebab itu,
mereka masih memerlukan bantuan atau fasilitasi, baik dari dosen maupun dari siapa pun,
termasuk teman sejawat. Dosen lebih berperan sebagai fasilitator.
(2) Mahasiswa diminta untuk merekonstruksi teks ulasan buku. Ada tiga teks ulasan yang dijadikan
bahan rekonstruksi. Teks yang pertama adalah teks ulasan terhadap buku hasil terjemahan dari
bahasa Inggris ke dalam bahasa Indonesia. Dua teks yang lain adalah ulasan terhadap buku bahasa
yang ditulis dalam bahasa Inggris.
(3) Dalam membuat rekonstruksi, apabila teks yang direkonstruksi sudah bagus, mahasiswa diarahkan
untuk mengungkapkan hasil rekonstruksi itu dengan bahasa mereka sendiri dengan tetap menjaga
isi, struktur teks, dan formulasi bahasa yang digunakan. Apabila teks yang direkonstruksi belum
bagus, mahasiswa diminta untuk memperbaikinya sesuai dengan struktur teks dan formulasi
bahasa yang seharusnya digunakan.
(4) Dalam membuat rekonstruksi, mahasiswa hendaknya selalu diingatkan untuk mengungkapkan
rekosntruksi itu dengan bahasa yang baik dan benar.
Kegiatan 4 (Bagian D): Pembangunan Teks Ulasan Buku secara Mandiri
(1) Pada kegiatan mandiri ini, selain mahasiswa diharapkan membuat rangkuman dari Bab 2,
mahasiswa juga diharapkan dapat menghasilkan sejumlah teks ulasan buku melalui proyek
kegiatan belajar yang mereka susun sendiri. Untuk itu, mereka diminta untuk mengikuti petunjukpetunjuk yang disampaikan pada halaman 81-82.
(2) Dalam membuat teks ulasan, mahasiswa hendaknya selalu diingatkan untuk mengungkapkannya
dengan bahasa yang baik dan benar.
C. Evaluasi
(1) Sesuai dengan tujuan perkuliahan di atas, dan karena genre yang dibahas pada Bab II adalah
ulasan buku, mahasiswa dituntut untuk dapat memproduksi teks ulasan buku.
(2) Pada prinsipnya, Kegiatan 4 di atas adalah kegiatan mandiri yang menghasilkan teks yang
diharapkan sebagaimana dinyatakan dalam tujuan perkulihan ini. Dengan demikian, teks ulasan
buku yang dihasilkan mahasiswa itu dapat dijadikan penilaian.
(3) Perlu digarisbawahi bahwa pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia ini berbasis kegiatan, yang berarti
bahwa penilaian tidak hanya didasarkan pada produk teks yang dihasilkan oleh mahasiswa, tetapi
juga proses pembelajaran yang mereka tempuh selama perkuliahan.
(4) Mahasiswa juga diminta untuk membuat portofolio sebagai bagian dari penilaian.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Systemic-Functional Linguistics and Its Implication in Foreign Language Teaching
Endang Fauziati
Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta
[email protected]; [email protected]
Introduction
Applied-linguists study language use in context such as the contexts associated with
specialized registers (e.g., business or academic), contexts for language learning (e.g.,
classrooms and study abroad programs), and contexts for language assessment (e.g., speaking
and writing tests). As a result, many of them are interested in linguistic theory that takes into
account the contextual dimensions of language. Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) views
language as a social semiotic resource people use to accomplish their purposes by expressing
meanings in context (Halliday, 1985). This perspective is refreshing to applied linguists since
it offers a framework for their work. In SFL, language must be studied in contexts such as
professional settings, classrooms, and language tests.
This paper is particularly meant to present the role of systemic functional linguistic
theory in language teaching in Indonesia. Three topics have been chosen for discussion,
namely an overview of systemic functional linguistics, pedagogical implication, and SFL
Genre-Based Approach in Language Education in Indonesian schools.
An Overview of Systemic Functional Linguistics
Systemic-Functional Linguistics also called critical linguistics (Fairclough, 1992; Pennycook,
2001) is an approach to language developed by Halliday (1985). While many of the linguistic
theories today are concerned with language as a mental process (see Chomsky), SFL is
closely related to with sociology; it explores how language is used in social contexts to
achieve particular goals. SFL does not address how language is processed or represented
within the brain, but rather looks at the text produced (whether spoken or written) and its
contexts. As it concerns with language use, SFL places more emphasis on language function
(what it is used for) than on language structure (how it is composed). SFL starts at social
context, looks at how language acts upon it and is constrained by it (O’Donnell, 2011: 2). A
45 46 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 central notion in SFL is stratification in which language is analyzed based on four strata:
context, semantics, lexico-grammar, and phonology-graphology.
Context: From SFL point of view, language can only be understood in relation to its
environment of use. The environment of language seen as texts and their component parts is
called the context of situation, whereas the environment of language seen as a system (its
lexical items and grammatical categories) is the context of culture (Halliday, 1978). As
Halliday (1978: 10) points out, “the context of situation is a theoretical construct for
explaining how a text relates to the social processes within which it is located”. Context of
situation consists of field, tenor, and mode.
First, Field refers to what the talk or the text is about. Examples of typical field are
science, education, war, medicine, sports and specific fields are biology, microbiology,
language education, English language education, etc. Second, Tenor refers the people
involved in the communication and the relationships between them. This includes: Power
relations (e.g. unequal: doctor/patient, teacher/student, equal: friend/friend, student/student),
formality (formal/informal), closeness (distant/neutral/close). Third, Mode refers to what part
the language is playing in the interaction and what form does it take (spoken or written). It
includes Role (Ancillary: language accompanying nonverbal activity, as when we talk as we
cook together or constitutive: the event is defined by the language, as in a speech), Channel:
written vs. spoken, or some mix, directionality: uni-directional channel or bi-directional
(unidirectional allows only monologue, while a bi-directional channel allows dialogue),
Media: +/-visual contact (e.g., -visual for a telephone conversation); use of multimedia (video,
powerpoint, etc.), Preparation: spontaneous vs. prepared; rushed vs. time for reflection
(O’Donnell, 2011).
Semantics: Semantics in SLF includes pragmatics. Halliday (1985) developed a
theory of the fundamental functions of language. The SFL semantic component is construed
of three metafunctions: ideational, interpersonal and textual. First, ideational metafunction
(the propositional content) is about the natural world in the broadest sense. In informal terms
it refers to the content of the message. It is concerned with the processes involved (i.e.
actions, events or states, entities) and the circumstances within which they take place. Second,
interpersonal metafunction is about the social world, especially the relationship between the
speaker and the hearer, and is concerned with clauses as exchange. It includes speechfunction, exchange structure, expression of attitude, etc.). Third, textual metafunction is about
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 47 the verbal world, especially the flow of information in a text, and is concerned with clauses as
messages. It deals with how the text is structured as a message, involving thematic structure,
information structure, and cohesion (Halliday (1985). Fifth, lexicogrammar is a term peculiar
to FLF to describe the continuity between grammar and lexis. For many linguists, these
phenomena are discrete. But Halliday brings them together with this term, he describes the
relation of grammar to lexis as one of a cline and delicacy. He states 'The grammarian's dream
is...to turn the whole of linguistic form into grammar, hoping to show that lexis can be defined
as "most delicate grammar" (1961). The term lexicogrammar has two distinct but related
notions: (1) the typical lexical and grammatical environment of a sign as it is habitually used
in naturally occurring texts or ‘discourse’, and (2) the core stratum of ‘wording’ in Halliday’s
model of language, which serves to mediate between the lower stratum of ‘sounding’
(graphology/phonology) and higher ‘meaning’ (semantics/discourse) (Halliday, 1961, Fries et
al. 2002, Halliday & Matthiessen 2004).
The Role of SFL in Language Education
SFL has had much influence in education in various parts of the world (Connor, 1996) and its
influence is most prominent in teaching writing (Wells, 1999) and critical discourse analysis
(Faircoulgh, 1995). Its contribution to language education is centred on its relevance to the
explanation and interpretation of texts. It is therefore the primary 'learning outcome' of
courses in SFL will be an awareness of the role of lexicogrammar (the integrated system of
grammar and lexis) in the production and negotiation of the social meanings that are realized
in both spoken and written texts.
Systemic Functional Linguistics highlights the relationship between language, text and
context. SFL is both a theory of language and a methodology for analysing texts and their
contexts of use. Due to its dual nature, SFL aims to explain how individuals use language and
how language is structured for its different usages (Eggins, 1994).
With regards to language education, Lock (1996: 1) states “systemic functional
perspective does not focus on the distinction between grammatical and ungrammatical
linguistic forms, but rather on the appropriateness of each lexico-gramatical choice for a
particular communicative purpose in a particular social context”. In learning a foreign
language the learners are expected to develop the ability to communicate effectively with
other speakers or writers of the new language. To do so, they need a grammatical description
48 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 of the language that goes beyond listing forms and structures and includes a description of the
available linguistic resources and of how they are used in social interactions.
Systemic functional linguistics is particularly adequate for the task since it conceives:
“The grammar of a language as a resource for making and exchanging meanings. A functional
grammar is therefore the kind of grammar most likely to have useful things to say to language
learners and teachers” (Lock, 1996: 3). Since SFL is interested in explaining how people use
language in everyday life and how language is structured according to its different forms of
usage, the notion of context is central in this approach.
From a systemic point of view, language can only be understood in relation to its
environment of use, and this premise is particularly evident in the language classroom, where
both spoken and written texts should not be interpreted in isolation from their contexts of
production and circulation. According to SFL, the environment of language seen as texts is
the context of situation, whereas the environment of language seen as a system is the context
of culture (Halliday, 1978).
Halliday (1978) argues for the importance of the context in language education based
on the unique role played by language in the learning process. Here language functions as
substance, instrument, and object. A substance means learning a language, be it a native
language or foreign language. An instrument means learning through language, which applies
to all fields of knowledge and to all educational levels. And an object means learning about
language such as its grammar, genres, registers, word formation, etc.
If all kinds of learning are mediated through language, what is the specific role of
language in language education? The answer comes from Halliday is that in the environment
of language teaching/learning there is an inseparable relationship between language as
medium of learning (as in developing oral proficiency, for instance), and language as the
substance of what is being taught/learned, as in the process of teaching/learning second or
foreign languages, the mother tongue, reading and writing, grammar, etc. In a functional level,
what is distinctive about language education is its permanent focus in the context, a context
which is outside of language itself (Halliday, 1978).
Language plays a three-fold role in language education: (1) in linguistic terms, it is the
substance of what is being learned; it is what we have to master in order to perform; (2) in
extra-linguistic terms, it is the ‘instrument’ through which we learn, and in that sense it
constitutes a resource for learning; and (3) in ‘metalinguistic’ terms it is the object of learning,
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 49 the content we have to learn about. According to Halliday (1978), what unites these aspects of
language education is that learners are expected to create a system, a meaning potential, from
the instantiations of language (texts) they are exposed to. And the key to this transformation is
the context of situation, that is, “the coherent pattern of activities from which the discourse
gains its relevance” (Halliday, 1978: 22). And it is also from the context of situation that the
language learner will be able to construe a higher level system−the context of culture. In
language education, learners have to make predictions in two ways: to predict the text from
the context, and to predict the context from the text, and this poses a particular difficulty to
second or foreing language learners who are still unfamiliar with the total pattern of the new
language: they have to learn from texts produced in a language they have little experience of.
In Halliday’s (1978: 23) words, in language education “The learner has to (1) process
and produce text; (2) relate it to, and construe from it, the context of situation; (3) build up the
potential that lies behind this text and others like it; and (4) relate it to, and construe from it,
the context of culture that lies behind that situation and others like it. These are not different
components of the process, with separate activities attatched to them; they are different
perspectives on a single, unitary process.”
Considerable emphasis in teaching is therefore given to the exploration of how the
functional elements of language structure realise available options from the three general
areas of meaning referred to above. Texts may then be analysed in terms of the range and
nature of such options. In the teaching and learning environment this clearly requires a
constant alternation between the development of descriptive and analytical skills and their
application to a range of text types. A typical exercise might involve, for example, the
comparative analysis of lexicogrammatical features in different types of texts.
SFL-Genre-Based Approach in Language Education in Indonesian Schools
SFL-Genre-based approach has been implemented in EFL teaching since the enactment of
curriculum 2004 (and it is implemented in Indonesian teaching in Curriculum 2013). The
2004 English curriculum is designed based on the government regulation stating that the
language education (including English) is meant to develop reading and writing culture
(Chapter III, Article 21, Point 2); and that the competence for language subjects should
emphasize the ability to read and write (Chapter III, Article 25, Point 3) suitable for the levels
of education. The competency standard for secondary education is aimed at improving the
learners’ intelligence, knowledge, personality, integrity, and life skills in order to live
50 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 independently and to pursue further education (Chapter III, Article 26, point 2). This
regulation explicitly indicates that Indonesian government has a great commitment to improve
the nation’s literacy level since it is the key to learning any other subjects. It implied that
language education is expected to develop communicative competence or the ability to
communicate in spoken or written language so that learners will possess the so called social
skills. That is why the 2004 English curriculum is designed based competence in which
learners are expected to be able to communicate (written and oral) in English as life skills.
The concept of competence adopted in this curriculum is the one developed by Celce-Murcia
et al. (1995) since it is pedagogically motivated or developed for language learning purposes.
This model states that the ultimate competence is communicative competence or discourse
competence which includes four sub-competences, namely: linguistic, actional, socio-cultural,
and strategic. (see Agustien, 2006)
At the practical level, the goal of language education is to facilitate learners’ ability to
create or produce texts (written and oral). The types of text (genres) developed in this
curriculum include transactional conversations (to get something done), interpersonal
conversations (to establish and maintain social relations), short functional texts
(announcements, greeting cards etc.), monologues and essays of certain genres. In other
words, these are the communicative competence to be developed. With regards to the literacy
levels, senior high school graduates are expected handle the university level of text or are able
to access knowledge typically obtained at tertiary education. For this reason, the text types
given for junior high school level are procedure, descriptive, recount, narrative, and report and
for senior high school level are descriptive, report, news item, narrative, discussion,
explanation, exposition, and review. Based on Well’s taxonomy (1987), the junior high school
literacy level is the functional level (using English for life survival such as carrying out
transactional exchanges, reading for fun, reading popular science or teenagers’ encyclopedia,
etc. and the literacy level for senior high school is the informational level (using English to
carry out more extended and interpersonal conversations, to deal with texts to access
knowledge at university level, for self study. (see Agustien, 2006)
The National Curriculum Board determines to implement SFL-GBA for classroom
procedure since this is the most suitable approach to handle competency-based curriculum.
GBA as discussed previously is materialized in the two learning cycles and four in which
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 51 joint construction and scaffolding talk play important roles. The first cycle integrates the
development of speaking and listening skills whereas the second cycle is aimed at developing
the ability to use written language. The cycles are depicted in the diagram below.
(Hammond 1992: 17)
In planning the lessons, teachers need to go around the cycle twice. In the first cycle,
they start with Building Knowledge of the Field (BKF) where teachers and students build
cultural context, share experiences, discuss vocabulary, grammatical patterns and so on. All of
these are geared around the types of spoken texts and topics they are going to deal with at the
second stage. The second stage is Modeling of Text (MT) where students listen to statements
of short functional texts, conversations, and monologues that are geared around a certain
communicative purpose. The third stage is Joint Construction of Text (JCT). At this stage
they try to develop spoken texts with their peers and with the help from the teachers. They
need to demonstrate their speaking ability and to show confidence to speak. The final stage is
Independent Construction of Text (ICT). At this stage, students are expected to be able to
speak spontaneously or to carry our monologues that are aimed at giving directions or
showing ways to do things such as how to make a kite, how to make a paper cap, and so on.
Thus, the first cycle integrates the development of speaking and listening skills.
52 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 The second cycle is aimed at developing the ability to use written language. The
teachers and students go through all the four stages once more. However, at the stage of MT
students are exposed to written texts. Here students develop reading skills, followed by joint
construction in writing texts, and finally they write texts independently. Like the strategies
employed in the first cycle, activities in this cycle are also geared around the same
communicative purpose. Students read short functional texts and procedural texts, and then
they write texts similar to what they have read. In this way, the integration of the four skills is
created by the communicative purpose(s) of texts. Students speak what they have heard, read
what they have talked about, and write what they have read.
To carry out activities at all stages, teachers can use some ingredients from various
teaching methods/techniques popularized in foreign language teaching methodology such as
Grammar Translation Method, Direct Method, Reading Method, Situational Language
Teaching, Community Language Learning, Communicative Language Teaching, and other
types of active, collaborative learning as proposed by Mel Silberman (1999). These are still
applicable and relevant to SFL-GBA. The most important thing is that every classroom
activity has to be aimed at providing learning experiences to use language in order to achieve
communicative competence.
Conclusion
Systemic Functional Linguistics is a theory of language which highlights the relationship
between language, text and context. Its scope is wide in that it sets out to explain how humans
make meaning through language and other semiotic resources, and to understand the
relationship between language and society. The contribution of SFL to language education is
centred predominantly on its relevance to the explanation and interpretation of texts. It is
therefore a general assumption about the learning outcome of SFL courses is an awareness of
the role of lexicogrammar in the production and negotiation of the social meanings that are
realised in both spoken and written texts.
SFL-GBA where teaching and learning is based on the result of genre analysis and
which focuses on the understanding and production of selected genres of texts has been
around with us since 1970s and was first popularized as teaching technique for writing skill
(the modification of process approach). Currently, this model has become increasingly
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 53 influential in mainstream ELT in Indonesia since the implementation of curriculum 2004. The
classroom implementation of SFL-GBA consists of four stages: building knowledge of field,
modeling of text, join construction of text, and individual construction of text.

LISTENING ASSESSMENT BY SYSTEMIC FUNCTIONAL
LINGUISTICS APPROACH
Vilya Lakstian Catra Mulia3
ABSTRACT
Listening is one of language competences as a set of communication and interpersonal skills
by listening ideas, integrate information, and evaluate what we hear. Student’s listening
ability is also assessed by educator. Among tests applied commonly to students, active
listening skill is a good choice. It was firstly used by therapist to paraphrase his client’s matter
for improving other’s understandably feeling. In fact, it is applicable for checking listening
skill by paraphrasing what a listener hears. It requires interpretation for allowing student to
independently make sense of listened information. This way results drawing conclusion or
stating expansion. By systemic functional linguistics approach, the results can be explored.
They are explored through clauses. The analysis can assess students’ ability towards their
interpretations. In this descriptive qualitative research, the writer assesses his students taking
listening for hotel subject by performing active listening skill. This skill will be analogous
with his students’ language skill to recheck, ensure, and convey information while
encountering their guests in hotel. The data collection is done by observation while assessing
his students’ active listening skill through paraphrasing information from the audios. They are
the data source supported with transcription which is for analysis later. Lexicogrammar is the
primary data. Purposive sampling is done by taking students’ clauses with mood structure,
transitivity, theme-rheme, and separating minor clauses. This active listening skill research
results that most students express declarative clauses together with monologue mode, but their
qualities can be tracked from the abilities of showing exchanges to know taking-giving
impacts. Their perceptions are not only propositions, but also drawing proposals. In processes,
there are some additional processes newly added by their active listening skill. They are also
able to draw conclusion resulted from interpreting multiple processes. For thematic structures,
there are shift and development on the theme types. Active listening skill is recommended to
comprehend students’ skill fully. In addition, it makes listening assessment become precious
and valuable because of considering multiple dimensions which are ideationally,
interpersonally, and textually.

INTRODUCTION
In order to perform communication, everyone is highly required to grasp language
skills. This way is done because real communication asks us to enable dealing with various
language users in many applications. Fairclough (1995: 239) say that communication is one of
core competences which aim to develop communication skills as a way of structuring
relationship between people in a changing and multicultural society. He also explains how
five aims (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), as people learn, is broken down into
specific skills.
Among those aims, listening is exclusively designed for interpreting and making sense
of language by receiving the stimulation with auditory sense. Fairclough (1995: 239) lists

Telp: 085 628 347 15 55 56 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 listening focuses into the statement saying “listening is glossed as to listen and respond
appropriately to oral requests and presentations”. This skill figures phenomena listened by
students under the aim of role identification within social skills. The Common Core State
Standard for Speaking and Listening (in Palmer, 2010: 24) requires students to develop a
range of broadly useful communication and interpersonal skills by listening to ideas, integrate
information from oral, visual, quantitative, and media source, and evaluate what they hear to
help achieving communicative process.
Listening is commonly used for assessing someone’s language skill by tests. However,
students should not just be prepared for test only because the skill is continued in whole life.
Learning method should be developed in order to internalize the skill so that students are able
to deal it both test and social interaction.
To reach the goal, it is recommended to allow students to express what they hear
independently in freedom. Educator should appreciate the way of students in comprehending
the matters they are being listened. It is important to note for assesment, not just sourced from
answering question only (i.e filling blanks or choosing multiple choice).
The other important thing to assess students’ is how the expressed idea enables showing
or drawing conclusion even expansion on their listening skill. It can be shown through their
expressed clauses for interpretation.

REVIEW ON RELATED LITERATURE
1.
Active Listening (AL)
As listening requires students’ comprehension towards the issues being listened, they
are better to interpret the situation and to have the image. AL is a good choice to realize. AL
is the decision of expressing listening skill by paraphrasing messages.
AL skill requires listener’s interpretation with working mind. Related to brain system,
Munte and Klump (2008: 1) say that AL happens on all levels of auditory system from the
cocklea via the brainstem structures and the mid brain to the auditory cortex and beyond.
Basically, it is usually used by therapists in order to encounter their clients’ problems.
AL is designed for helping receiver to communicate his or her idea much satisfying to
improve other’s understandably feeling. AL shows higher level than comprehension by
simple acknowledgment. In addition, people will be much attracted socially to those who
support their way of thinking about the world (see Weger, Castle, Emmet, 2010).
2.
Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL)
In order to support the assessment on student’s independent listening interpretation,
SFL is the right decision to choose. SFL mediates how AL is able to know students’ abilities
in comprehending messages. From expressed clauses, the writer explores their developments,
improvements, and appreciations through SFL’s lexicogrammar.
In this article, the writer monitors his students’ ALs ideationally, interpersonally, and
textually as SFL defines in language metafunctions. By the metafunctions, the writer analyzes
AL on speech function and exchange, process, and thematic structure sourced from
lexicogrammatical aspects as follows:
a.
Mood
The way of exchanging messages is shown through mood structure. It is categorized in
interpersonal metafunction. Mood structure use subject and finite as the core of speech and
exchange functions. The speech function has three types. They are declarative, interrogative,
and imperative; whereas the exchanges are proposition and proposal. Proposisiton is by taking
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 57 and giving information. On other side, proposal is by taking and giving goods or service.
Mood structure is shown by grammatical elements such as polarity, modality, and tense. They
are provided in finite. Subject stands side by side with finite as the negotiation or transaction
devices (Djatmika, 2012: 47; Santosa 2003: 111).
There are two types of mood structure. The first is indicative which is categorized into
declarative and interogative (polar and Wh). Declarative has Subject^Finite structure.
Interogative has Finite^Subject for polar and Wh^Finite^Subject for Wh. The second type is
imperative with Predicator as the main structure (see Santosa, 2003: 109).
b.
Transitivity
Clauses represent how language user express about the “world”. This way is “what’s
going on” function of language. This function is also suitable for listening skill so that
listeners are able to imagine the world they are encountering with.
SFL refers this phenomenon as process. It is classified as language function on
ideational: experiential (Halliday, 1990; Martin, Matthiessen, dan Painter, 2003; Gerot dan
Wignel, 1995). There are six processes such as material, verbal, mental, behavioral: (verbal &
mental), relational: (attributive & identification), and existential. These various types of
process are categorized to classify our experience along with suitable involved participants
(Martin, Matthiessen, dan Painter 2003: 102). Gerot dan Wignel (1995: 54) say that the
process is the core together with various participants and circumstances. The process is
realized by verb, participant by noun, and circumstance by adjunct.
c.
Theme-Rheme
The third metafunction working on clause is textual. This function involves the use of
language in organizing the text itself. The exploration can be proved from the analysis of
theme and rheme. Halliday (1990: 38) states that theme is the element of beginning point on
the message. Furthermore, it becomes the attention of clause because sequenced information
places theme as the beginning naturally bringing character of clause as message. Rheme exists
by following theme. It is the new information for developing theme.
There are three types of themes. They are ideational, interpersonal, and textual.
Ideational theme involves topical theme which is then categorized into unmarked and marked
cases. For unmarked, the topical theme is subject. In contrast, marked case is not subject. It is
adverbial, prepositional phrase, and complement. They are all positioned in the beginning of
clause. Every clause must be analyzed until reaching topical theme. For textual theme, it
relates clause with its context. There are conjunction, conjunctive adjunct, and continuative. It
has logico-semantic relation, so it is also labeled. Interpersonal theme includes modal adjunct,
finite, and WH (see Gerot &Wignell, 1995: 104-105).
C.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This article applies qualitative research as Blaxter et al (1996: 60) says it focuses on
collecting and analyzing non-numerical data. This article is presented from analyzing clauses
expressed by students. The clause analysis is shown through the descriptions of mood
structure, transitivity, and theme-rheme.This treatment is analogously like Sutopo (2006: 40)
saying that qualitative research concerns on the description of data containing words, clauses,
or sentences having more meaningful and arousing much than just numeric or frequency. That
is why this article is provided in qualitative descriptive.
Lincoln and Guba (1985: 42) explain research location as focus-determined boundary
and the limitation decided by research object. This research takes place on the occasion of
assessing listening skill by AL when the writer (as the lecturer) observed his students’
58 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 listening skill. Furthermore, the source of the data are taken by observation in the class. This
research is conducted by asking students in the classroom to listen the audios on hotel
activity. The audios are played in different occasions with same roles and participants in the
topics of handling hotel industries, like the students are concentrating on, because they took
listening for hotel subject. The audios are chosen on the occasion happening on reservation
and check-out by receptionist and hotel guest. This application is done for his students. The
writer didn’t lead his students for AL results. The observation was done naturally.So, there are
two data sources. They are students and their recording transcriptionreflecting participant and
document. Sutopo (2006: 57) explains data source as where the data are taken including place,
informant, event, document, site, etc.
The primary data in this article is the lexicogrammar which is used by the writer to do
analysis. It has hold scientific status (see Lincoln & Guba, 1985: 335) as the data related to
SFL approach. To providing the required data, the writer chooses selectively by purposive
sampling. Goetz and Le Compte (in Sutopo, 2006: 65) refers this technique as criterion-based
selection. The data selections in this article are by considering: a) the clauses expressed by the
students, b) the clauses with mood structure, transitivity, and theme-rheme, c) the separation
of minor clause because of incapability of expressing complete context.
The writer recorded his students ideas by recording what they said for interpreting the
audios. It shows method triangulation by document analysis and observation, while source
triangulation is from students’ AL transcriptions and the students themselves. To perform the
research, the audios were played in different events but they were performed byparticipants
with same roles and in the topics of handling hotel industries. The occasions happen on
reservation and check-out by receptionist and guest.The decision of choosing reservation and
check out comes from the detail information. Reservation shows how guest gives much
information about identity, schedule, type of room, and price. In other hand, check out reveals
the result of all guest’s activities using hotel facilities until resulting total price. They are two
related sequence showing the beginning information to the result of leaving the hotel room.
D.
DISCUSSION
The writer breaks the expressions uttered by participants into clauses. Because of using
SFL approach, clause is the base of analysis. The selected clauses contain the essential
elements used for SFL analysis such as subject and finite. The clauses below are the examples
taken from the receptionist as the hotel staff (symbolized by “s” on the coding) and guest (g)

In this research, the writer wants to know his students’ comprehension on listening by
using AL skill. This skill requires students’ ability to paraphrase what they hear, then interpret
the messages based on their perceptions.

The table above shows how students are able to retell their perceptions into their own
words. The number of retold message can be fewer than the original. This finding happens
because they retell by summarizing the details. It is acceptable as long as the core information
is still on hand. It is also the fact that we commonly summarize everything in brief.

The speech functions from the audios are various because the conversations are
arranged suitably with the context as if listeners are really in the place. This arranged situation
makes the speech functions almost include those three types. It is different when students
paraphrase the messages uttered by the participants in the audio. The AL results declarative
clauses. It is a nature that we will retell in declarative mode easily, unlike advanced story
teller who can express various speech functions in the way of mimicking told event.

The clause (1), (2), and (3) are the sequence of checking which involves the staff and
the guest. The clause (4) is expressed by ik (one of the researched students) by expressing her
AL skill. It shows how she summarizes the sequence. The details are expressed in brief in an
adjunct constituent.
After getting speech functions, mood structure is also the base of finding exchanges.
SFL allows us to get how language plays its role on exchanging message. There are two types
of exchange. First, it is proposition which shows taking or giving information. Second, it is
proposal presenting clause with taking or giving goods or service.
The clause (2) can be the example of proposition. It is the example how the participant –
in this case, the staff – wants to get information from his guest. It is expressed by uttering
interrogative clause.
On the other hand, the clause (1) and (4) express proposal exchanges. (1) delivers the
guest’s intention towards asking the staff to do something for her. That is for reservation. To
reveal this discussion, AL skill is also able to express proposal like what is shown on (4). In
this clause, the student tries to visualize the guest’s request. Here is the table.

Table 5 provides exchange total happening on the participants involved in the audios. It
can be meant that the staff plays his role more than the guest. The staff expresses more
proposals. This finding relates to the reality that most hotel staffs try to satisfy their guests by
offering services (e.g facility, help, room key, etc) and asking for administration requirements
(e.g identity card, days of staying, etc).
AL includes exchange as well. This way happens together with the ideas through
expressed clauses by the speaker. The table below is provided to compare the exhanges.

Based on their paraphrasing skill, they tend to focus on telling about taking or giving
information by the staff and the guest. Those numbers prove their perceptions on telling
exchanges happening on the encountered context which dominantly deal with registration and

Speech function and exchange can be considered as the indicators of students’ AL skill
in comprehending what they hear. When mood structures show how they express and
exchange clauses on taking-or-giving impacts, the messages are better to validate with the
contents; what is going on the context? It is described in the term “message as process”.
2.
Process
Process is taken from transitivity analysis. The processes here are firstly analysed on the
audios as the learning media. The happening processes involve three types. They are material,
mental, and relational: attributive processes. Material process shows physical action (e.g I
reserve you and your daughter a room facing main street from Friday June 21st until Sunday
June 23rd). Mental process is done through senses without physical action (e.g I hope you
have pleasant stay here), and relational: attributive happens through giving attribute (e.g I’m
Miss Ann Rafferty in room 1206).

Based on table 8 above, it seems that the students are able to expand the processes from
the event. When the table 7 only shows three processes, this table is able to prove their
abilities in expressing process types which have not been mentioned yet in the audios.
There are additional processes such as verbal, behavioral: verbal, and existential. Verbal
process is the real saying process without behavioral element. There are three participants
such as sayer (who is saying), verbiage (the thing which is being said), and receiver (who is
receiving the message).

To assess students’ AL skill based on the table 8, it is shown that although Ik doesn’t
express so many in number, this student is able to say various processes than others, there are
5 processes. In wins for clause total, although this student expresses 4 processes. Ai and Tr
are weak in expressing the “what is going on”, but Ai wins the process spread.Ai is able to
express the process which is missed by Tr, that is by giving attribute through relational:
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 63 attributive process.This case involves educator’s attention whether deciding better mark based
on clause total or creative perspective.
By looking at the table of process, teacher or lecturer can know how many perspectives
the students enable to express. In addition, it relates to the way of AL participants in exploring
the “world”.

Thematic Structure
In this research, the writer has provided the thematic structures expressed by the audios
and students. This way is used for exploring the dynamics of themes from the audios,
students, and their results. The findings show whether there are shifts and developments on
the themes.

The table above shows the guest just focuses on what she is talking about. There is no
marked case so that it shows the guest straight to the point. She prefers more to whom she is
negotiating (e.g My name is Ann Rafferty). She also uses interpersonal and textual themes on
the communication with the staff. The interpersonal themes are dominantly in interrogative
clauses (e.g is the price different?). Textual ones are for connecting the previous expressed
clauses (e.g and I’d like to check out?). Topical marked theme is expressed by the hotel staff.
This finding is analogous with what is commonly uttered to guest. Marked themes show that
the messages are attributed with supporting issue (e.g in addition to the charge for the two
nights, you see there is a charge for a couple of phone calls).
The exploration takes turn on students’ interpretation then. With AL, the writer finds
shifts and developments on expressing various types of theme. Thematic structure allows us
to analyze topicality in the understanding of coherence on a part of text with others (Halliday
& Hasan, 1985: 45). Here is the table of themes from students’ AL.

Table 10 shows students’ ALs expressed in ideational and textual themes. None of
interpersonal theme is uttered by students in their ALs. This finding realizes the mode of
using language. In the way of examining this AL research, the language activity is done by
monologue. The writer was not involved in directing students’ ALs. He recorded and
transcribed what the students said only. Interpersonal theme tends to appear on dialogue
mode, because expressed language units are more expected to prepositions and proposals
which get effects on speaking partner (or addressee). Gerot and Wignel (1995: 106) list
64 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 interpersonal theme realized by modal adjunct, vocative, finite, and WH. Specifically, Martin,
Matthiessen, and Painter (2005: 25) specifies the identification of interpersonal theme on
finite for expecting response (from addressee), WH element for requiring addressee’s answer,
vocative for identifying addressee, and adjunct chosen for showing speaker’s comment,
assessment, and attitude toward the message.
The uses of such themes have particular function to express students’ ideas from what
they hear. Unmarked topical theme is uttered for directly saying participant involved in the
message. The examples, according to the students’ ALs, are the guest, the receptionist, they,
and she. This is the strategy by students in performing their ALs.

Students also have strategy to express their ALs with textual theme. This kind of theme
appears in the beginning of clause they speak. Mostly, it is said in the form of conjunction.
Students use conjunction to connect a clause which is being said with the previous. Gerot and
Wignell (1995: 105-106) refer conjunction as structural label specified for textual theme.
There are several markers for textual theme expressed by the students such as and, then,
and but. For those conjunctions, the dominant is and. The students use it for adding

CONCLUSION
AL can be used for students’ assesment on listening skill. The assesment becomes much
precious and valuable by SFL approach. SFL is able to show the students’ abilities on
multiple dimensions through language metafunctions ideationally, interpersonally, or
textually. This approach provides educator alternative choice for deciding score.
By paying attention on AL, educator is able to observe his students’ listening skill. The
skill is assesed from the ideas expressed. This article shows how students exploit their
perceptions by making conclusion and expanding ideas. The lexicogrammar analysis tries to
show the source of their creativities while expressing their ideas.
Assesing listening through AL is a creative option for educator to comprehend student’s
skill fully, especially for intermediate, upper level, or adult students. Instead of providing
listening test by filling blanks or multiple choices, AL has goal for presenting student’s
comfort as its firstly use by therapist.

Pembelajaran kooperatif lebih diunggulkan daripada pembelajaran langsung dengan metode
ceramah. Sebab, hasil penelitian telah membuktikan bahwa pembelajaran kooperatif hasilnya
lebih baik dan lebih efektif daripada metode ceramah. Salah satu metode dalam pembelajaran
kooperatif yang sangat populer bagi kalangan guru adalah metode jigsaw. Dalam makalah ini
diungkapkan metode jigsawinovatif karena materi teks eksposisi itu dihasilkan oleh siswa
yang ditulis secara berantai. Langkah pembelajarannya melalui enam tahap kegiatan, yaitu (1)
pengkondisian, (2) pelaksanaan, (3) pembahasan, (4) presentasi hasil, (5) penulisan mandiri,
dan (6) evaluasi.
Kata kunci: pembelajaran, koopertaif, jigsaw, berantai.
1.
Pendahuluan
Pelaksanaan pembelajaran yang terpusat pada guru“teacher centred learning”
menjadikan siswa kurang kreatif. Hal itu disebabkan oleh dominasi guru dalam pembelajaran
sehingga siswa hanya mengikuti guru sebagai pendengar pasif. Pembelajaran yang terpusat
pada guru seperti itu selalu menggunakan metode ceramah. Prosesnya menjadikan siswa pasif
dan guru yang berperan aktif. Sepertiyang dikatakan oleh Omatseye (2007):“The traditional
know method of teaching in tertiary institutions is the lecture method. In this method, the
lecturer has a body of knowledge to communicate to his students who are more or less silent
participants. In effect, there is an obvious gulf or barrier between the lecturer and his
students”. Artinya, metode pembelajaran tradisional di lembaga pendidikan menggunakan
metode kuliah. Dengan metode ini guru memiliki pengetahuan untuk dikomunikasikan pada
siswanya yang dianggap sebagai partisipan yang cenderung pasif.
Dampak pembelajaran dengan metode ceramah adanya hambatan hubungan yang nyata
antara guru dengan siswa.Dengan berceramah terus saat pembelajaran terkadang guru kurang
memperhatikan siswanya sehingga seolah-olah ada “jarak” dan tidak memiliki kedekatan
batin antara keduanya. Hal itu dapat mengakibatkan hasil yang dicapai kurang maksimal
dibandingkan dengan cara kooperatif. Penelitian Chalmers dan Fuller (1999)
membuktikan“Results indicated that students in such integrated programmes used learning
strategies more effectively and achieved better results than students who were taught in the
conventional way”. Artinya, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa dalam program
terpadu tersebut digunakan strategi pembelajaran lebih efektif dan mencapai hasil yang lebih
baik daripada siswa yang diajarkan dengan cara ceramah.
Pembelajaran yang terpusat pada guru berceramah memang tidak selalu jelek tetapi ada
sisi positif yang perlu diperhatikan. Guru berperanan untukmemegang kendali di kelas dan hal
itu dilakukan supaya para siswa lebih terarah dan terorganisasi dengan baik. Seperti yang
dikatakan Arends (2008:1) bahwa pengajaran yang terpusat pada guru adalah di mana gurulah
yang menentukan tujuan pengajaran dan menjaga agar lingkungan belajar di kelas terarah dan
67 68 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 cukup terstruktur. Pembelajaran yang terpusat pada guru identik dengan pembelajaran
langsung atau istilah Joyce, dkk. (2011:422) instruksi langsung. Lebih lanjut Joyce, dkk.
mengatakan bahwa instruksi langsung memiliki beberapa keunggulan, yaitu adanya fokus
akademik, arahan dan kontrol guru, harapan yang tinggi terhadap perkembangan siswa, sistem
manajemen waktu, dan atmosfer waktu yang cukup netral. Pembelajaran dengan metode apa
pun yang dilakukan tidak dapat dilepaskan dengan metode ceramah. Sebab, metode ceramah
selalu mengawali pembelajaran kooperatif.
Hal sebaliknya dari teacher centred learning adalahstudent oriented, yakni
pembelajaran yangterpusat pada siswa. Kegiatan pembelajaran yang menekankan pada siswa
belajar dengan cara berdiskusi yang mengangkat kasus-kasus aktual dianggap lebih baik dan
inovatif. Pembelajaran seperti itu selalu menggunakan bentuk-bentuk kerjasama dalam
diskusi yang berbasis cooperative learning (pembelajaran kooperatif).Proses pembelajarannya
terpusatpada siswa, bukan pada guru sebab guru berperan sebagai narasumber dan fasilitator.
Tujuannya agar siswa lebih aktif dan kreatif serta untuk menghindari dominasi ceramah oleh
guru dalam pembelajaran. Pendekatan pembelajaran kooperatif menurut Andayani (2015:233)
adalah serangkaian kegiatan belajar yang dilakukan oleh siswa dalam kelompok-kelompok
tertentu untuk mencapai tujuan pembelajaran yang telah dirumuskan. Dengan kata lain,
pembelajaran kooperatif mengutamakan kerjasama siswa dalam kelompok.
Westwood (2008:26) mengatakan”Student-centred methods are deemed best practice in
situations where the teaching objectives for the lesson include acquisition of independent
study skills, greater student autonomy, working collaboratively with others, the construction
of knowledge from firsthand experience, and the application of basic academic skills for
authentic purpose”.Artinya, metode yang terpusat pada siswa merupakan praktik terbaik
dalam situasi pelaksanaan pengajaran termasuk pemerolehan pelajaran keterampilan mandiri,
otonomi siswa tertinggi, bekerja secara kolaborasi dengan teman-temannya, membangun
pengetahuan dari pengalaman awal, dan mengaplikasikan keterampilan akademik dasar untuk
tujuan yang autentik.
Pembelajaran yang terpusat pada siswa seperti yang dikatakan oleh Westwood
(2008:26) itu identik dengan pembelajaran kooperatif. Maka, pembelajarannya selalu
difokuskan pada diskusi yang dapat memunculkan ide-ide segar dan mampu membangun
pemikiran berdasarkan pengetahuan yang dimilikinya oleh para siswa. Sejalan dengan itu
Kadir, dkk. (2005) mengatakan ”They shared that cooperative learning strategy created an
environment that promoted discussion among group members. Students had the opportunity
to exchange ideas and to express their views when they were working in groups”. Artinya,
mereka (para siswa) menyatakan bahwa strategi pembelajaran kooperatif membangun
lingkungan yang mampu mengembangkan diskusi antarkelompok. Dengan strategi ini siswa
mempunyai kesempatan untuk menukar ide dan mengungkapkan pandangannya ketika
mereka berdiskusi dalam kelompok-kelompok.
Salah satu model yangdikembangkan dalam pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia adalah
model pembelajaran kooperatif yang terpusat pada siswa.Wujudnya adalah metode
pembelajaran menulis teks eksposisi dengan metode jigsaw. Metode jigsawsebagai salah satu
model pembelajaran kooperatif merupakan metode yang sangat populer bagi para guru.
Metode jigsaw ini sangat tepat digunakan dalam pembelajaran menulis teks karena
pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia di SMA pada K-13 berbasis teks.Dalam model pembelajaran
kooperatif dengan metode jigsaw, cara yang dilakukan adalah membagikan teks yang sama
oleh guru kepada semua kelompok siswa yang telah dibentuknya. Teks tersebut telah tersedia
dan setiap siswa membahasnya sesuai topik yang telah ditentukan.
Dalam metode jigsaw yang dikembangkan ini ada inovasi yang diterapkan, yaitu cara
menghadirkan teks. Untuk menghasilkan teks, yakni jenis teks eksposisi yang dilakukan
dengan penulisan berantaioleh setiap siswa pada masing-masing kelompok. Jadi, kalimat Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 69 kalimat yang membentuk teks eksposisi dibuat oleh kelompok siswa dengan penulisan
berantai. Maka, setiap siswa merasakan membuat teks secara utuh. Artinya, ada tanggung
jawab terhadap teks yang dibuatnya secara berkelompok. Hal baru yang ada dalam metode
jigsaw dengan penulisan berantai untuk menghasilkan teks adalah setiap kelompok akan
menghasilkan teks eksposisi yang berbeda. Selanjutnya, teks eksposisi tersebut akan dibahas
dari aspek kebahasaan secara komprehensif.Metode pembelajaran seperti itu menjadikan
siswa aktif dankreatif dalam berpikir.Namun, perlu diperhatikan bahwa guru harus benarbenar memahami teori pembelajaran kooperatif dan cara penerapannya. Seperti kata Wei dan
Tang (2015)”Before the implementation of cooperative learning, the teacher has to study the
theory and practice of cooperative learning inclass from home and abroad consciously,
strictly organize classroom teaching according to the characteristics and nature of the theory
of cooperative learning”. Artinya, sebelum implementasi pembelajaran kooperatif guru harus
menelaah teori dan praktik pembelajaran teori di kelas, menyusun dengan cermat
pembelajaran kelas menurut karakter dan sifat teori pembelajaran kooperatif tersebut.

Teks dan Teks Eksposisi
Teks merupakan wujud bahasa yang nyata dan sangat penting dalam proses komunikasi.
Rohmadi dan Nasucha (2010:11) mengatakan bahwa teks adalah bahasa yang berfungsi.
Maksud bahasa yang berfungsi menurut Halliday dan Hasan (1994:13) adalah bahasa yang
sedang melaksanakan tugas tertentu dalam konteks situasi. Hal senada diungkapkan Achmad
dan Abdullah (2013:136) bahwa teks adalah esensi wujud bahasa yang direalisasikan dalam
bentuk wacana. Teks menurut Beaugrande dan Dressler (1981:3) merupakan tuturan
komunikatif yang harus memenuhi tujuh standar. Pertama, cohesion(hubungan komponen
teks yang gramatikal dan adanya keterpaduan bentuk). Kedua,coherence (konfigurasi makna
yang padu. Ketiga,intentionality(adanya keinginan kuat dari penyapa terhadap maksud dan
tujuan). Keempat, acceptability (keberterimaan bagi pesapa terhadap maksud dan tujuan).
Kelima, informativity(informasinya diharapkan dapat diketahui). Keenam, situationality
(adanya faktor yang berhubungan dengan situasi peristiwa). Ketujuh, intertextuality(adanya
faktor kemanfaatan satu teks bergantung dengan teks lain).
Penjelasan tujuh standar teks dapat disampaikan dengan contoh. Cuplikan teks yang
berupa tata tertib bagi tamu terdapat di kamar hotel Pondok Sari 1 Tawangmangu: (1) semua
tamu diharap terlebih dahulu melapor ke kantor dan menyerahkan kartu tanda pengenal, (2)
kehilangan/ kerusakan barang di kamar/ halaman bukan tanggungan hotel, dan (3) sebelum
meninggalkan kamar (check out) diharap memeriksa barang bawaannya kalau mungkin ada
yang tertinggal. Teks tersebut kohesif dan koheren terdapat pada frasa semua tamu (1) dan
bukan tanggungan hotel. Artinya, frasa semua tamu dilesapkan (2). Aspek intensional dan
akseptabilitas terdapat pada teks melapor (1) maksudnya pihak penyapa mengingingkan agar
semua tamu melapor kepada penyapa. Kehilangan/ kerusakan (2) maksudnya penyapa
menginginkan dan mengingatkan agar tamu berhati-hati. Aspek situasional berlaku di hotel
Sari 1 Tawangmangu, Karanganyar dan intertekstual adanya hubungan teks yang satu dengan
teks lainnya.
Pertalian teks yang satu dengan teks lainnya termasuk aspek situasi yang memberikan
manfaat secara utuh dalam konteks. Teks yang satu bergantung dan saling berhubungan
terhadap teks lainnya yang disebut koteks. Hal itu sering dijumpai di tempat umum, seperti di
restoran, tempat pariwisata, atau di batas kota. Menurut Achmad dan Abdullah (2013:136)
koteks (co-text), yaitu teks yang bersifat sejajar, koordinatif, dan memiliki hubungan dengan
teks lainnya, teks yang satu memiliki hubungan dengan teks lainnya. Misalnya teks: Selamat
Datang yang tertulis di batas kabupaten Klaten (masuk). Selanjutnya, Selamat Jalan yang
tertulis di batas kabupaten Klaten (keluar). Teks yang satu merupakan koteks, yakni sebagai
70 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 teks yang memiliki hubungan dengan teks lainnya. Artinya, teks Selamat Datang ada
hubungan dengan teks Selamat Jalan. Contoh lain, seorang yang memulai membaca AlQuran selalu mengawali dengan membaca Bismillahirrahmanirrahim dan mengakhiri dengan
membaca Shodaqollahul Adzim. Kedua teks bacaan itu memiliki hubungan yang erat maka
teks yang satunya merupakan koteks.
Wujud teks selalu dibarengi dengan konteks, yakni dua hal yang tidak terpisahkan.
Sebab, konteks meliputi suatu hal di luar teks, seperti situasi terjadinya, maksudnya,
pembuatnya, dan masih banyak lagi yang mempengaruhi penggunaan bahasa di luar teks
tersebut. Misalnya teks: Taatilah Peraturan Lalu Lintas! Tulisan itu ditujukan kepada
pengendara sepeda/ motor/ mobil. Maka, teks seperti itu pasti terpampang di pinggir jalan
raya dan bukan di persawahan atau masjid. Pembuatnya instansi yang berwenang, yakni pihak
kepolisian atau dinas perhubungan. Penyapanya adalah pihak kepolisian dan pesapanya
adalah pengendara. Maksud teks seperti itu untuk mengingatkan agar para pengendara
menaati peraturan lalu lintas, seperti tidak boleh mengebut dan berhenti saat lampu merah
menyala. Intinya, dengan menaati peraturan lalu lintas maka kecelakaan dapat dihindari.
Dengan demikian, teks itu termasuk juga konteks. Hal itu sesuai dengan pendapat Wijana dan
Rohmadi (2009:71) bahwa analisis wacana teks tidak dapat meninggalkan analisis konteks.
Munculnya teks dibarengi adanya latar yang berupa konteks dengan maksud dan tujuan yang
diharapkan oleh penulis atau pembuatnya. Kata Achmad dan Abdullah (2013:145) bahwa
konteks ialah situasi atau latar terjadinya suatu komunikasi. Contoh lain, teks Batas Suci yang
berupa konteks ini terdapat di lantai serambi masjid. Tujuannya agar orang yang memasuki
masjid melepaskan sandal atau sepatu sebab lantai masjid untuk shalat harus bersih.
Menurut Mahsun (2014:18-23) jenis-jenis teks berdasarkan genrenya dibagi menjadi
tiga macam, yaitu (1) Genre Sastra, terdiri atas subgenre naratif dan nonnaratif, (2) Genre
Faktual, terdiri atas subgenre laporan dan arahan/ prosedural, dan (3) Genre Tanggapan,
terdiri atas subgenre transaksional dan ekspositori. Berdasarkan genre dan subgenre tersebut
terdapat bermacam-macam jenis teks. Salah satu jenis teks adalah teks eksposisi yang
termasuk dalam genre tanggapan dan subgenre ekspositori. Masih menurut Mahsun (2014:31)
teks eksposisi berisi paparan gagasan atau usulan sesuatu yang bersifat pribadi. Hal yang lain
diungkapkan oleh Keraf (2001:110) bahwa tulisan eksposisi bertujuan untuk memberikan
penjelasan atau informasi. Penjelasan dalam teks eksposisi tersebut berupa sesuatu yang perlu
diungkapkan, yakni pengungkapan tentang gagasan dalam tulisan, pendapat, atau hal yang
perlu diketahui oleh pembaca. Dalam teks eksposisi antara paragraf pertama, kedua, ketiga,
dan seterusnya harus memiliki kepaduan, baik kepaduan bentuk (kehesif) maupun kepaduan
makna (koheren).
Teks eksposisi sebagai teks yang berisi paparan bertujuan menginformasikan isi
bacaan yang terkandung di dalamnya. Oleh karena itu, teks eksposisi dapat memberikan
informasi dan penjelasan tentang pengetahuan dalam berbagai bidang yang ada. Jadi, tidak
hanya dalam bidang kebahasaan tetapi dapat juga dalam bidang-bidang yang lainnya. Seperti
yang dikatakan oleh Samah dan Jusoff (2008) dalam Jurnal International Studies“Contentbased reading texts play a vital role in the acquisition of knowledge and information in
various fields studies”. Artinya, teks bacaan yang berbasis isi memainkan peranan penting
dalam pemerolehan pengetahuan dan informasi dalam berbagai bidang studi. Berdasarkan
paparan tersebut, maka perlu upaya yang cukup kuat untuk memahami teks dengan lebih baik
sehingga isi teks dapat dipahami secara komprehensif. Hal lain yang memiliki peranan
penting dalam berbagai bidang studi adalah pemahaman klasifikasi teks.
Hal senada diungkapkan oleh Dharmadhikari, dkk. (2011) bahwa ”Automatic
classification of text is an important in many domains. It has many applications such as
automated indexing of scientific articles, spam filtering, identification of document genre,
authorship attribution, automated essay grading, survey coding, classification of news
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 71 articles, etc”. Artinya, cakupan klasifikasi teks memiliki peranan penting dalam berbagai
bidang/ ranah. Klasifikasi teks itu mencakup indeks artikel ilmiah, filter spam, identifikasi
berbagai jenis dokumen, atribut penulis, nilai esai, kode survei, klasifikasi berbagai artikel
berita, dan lain-lain.
Berdasarkan paparan yang telah dikemukakan maka teks eksposisi dapat memberikan
penjelasan tentang sesuatu yang diungkapkan kepada pembaca berkaitan dengan hal-hal yang
tercantum dalam klasifikasi tersebut. Oleh karena itu, teks eksposisi merupakan teks yang
berupa pendapat atau pernyataan yang berisi informasi dengan berbagai argumentasi yang
diungkapkan kemudian diakhiri dengan pernyataan ulang pendapat.

Metode dalam Pembelajaran Kooperatif
Metode merupakan perencanaan menyeluruh yang berkaitan dengan urutan-urutan
materi yang akan diajarkan. Sanjaya (2006) mengatakan bahwa metode merupakan cara yang
digunakan untuk mengimplementasikan rencana yang sudah disusun dalam kegiatan nyata
agar tujuan dapat tercapai secara optimal. Penyusunan rencana pembelajaran itu merupakan
prinsip yang harus dilakukan oleh guru. Prinsip tersebut terdapat di dalam metode
pembelajaran. Hal itu sesuai dengan pendapat Grasha (1996) bahwa “A teaching method
comprises the principles and methods used for instruction”. Artinya, metode pembelajaran
terdiri atas prinsip-prinsip dan instruksi penggunaannya. Jigsaw, Student Teams Achievement
Divisions (STAD), dan Group Investigation (GI) masing-masing merupakan metode
pembelajaran. Gabungan metode tersebut merupakan kesatuan dalam model pembelajaran.
Jadi, jigsaw merupakan metode pembelajaran yang terbingkai dalam model pembelajaran
kooperatif (cooperative learning).
Perkembangan pembelajaran yang menggagas berbagai model pembelajaran yang
menekankan padasiswa untuk bekerja sama adalah pembelajaran kooperatif (cooperative
learning). Prosesnya dua arah, bukan hanya satu arah dari guru kepada siswa tetapi juga dari
siswa kepada guru. Setiap kelompok siswa saling membantu dalam berbagai aspek pelajaran.
Arends (2008:4) mengatakan bahwa pembelajaran kooperatif berupaya membantu siswa
untuk mempelajari isi akademis dan berbagai keterampilan untuk mencapai berbagai sasaran
dan tujuan sosial dan hubungan antarmanusia yang penting. Dengan demikian, peserta didik
akan saling menghargai dan diharapkan menjadi orang yang memiliki tanggung jawab dan
menghilangkan sikap individualistik. Sebab, yang ditonjolkan dan difokuskan adanya
kerjasama dalam hubungannya manusia sebagai makhluk sosial. Seperti yang dikatakan oleh
Hsiung (2012) ”Cooperative learning condition performed substantially better in both the
homework and unit tests than those in the individualistic learning condition”. Artinya,
pembelajaran kooperatif yang ditunjukkan oleh para siswa jauh lebih baik, baik dalam
mengerjakan tugas maupun tes daripada pembelajaran individual. Hal senada diungkapkan
oleh Riyanto (2014:265) bahwa falsafah yang menjadi dasar dalam pembelajaran kooperatif
adalah (1) manusia sebagai makhluk sosial, (2) gotong royong, dan (3) kerjasama merupakan
kebutuhan penting bagi kehidupan manusia.
Asgari (2011) dalam International Journalmengatakan bahwa ”Cooperative learning in
a group setting requires students to work together towards a common goal, which benefits
every member of the group”. Artinya, pembelajaran kooperatif dalam bentuk kelompok
mensyaratkan para siswa untuk bekerja sama mencapai tujuan umum. Mereka saling
berdiskusi dan bertukar pikiran sehingga peran siswa sangat aktif dan menonjol dalam
pembelajaran. Namun, perlu diperhatikan jika dalam satu kelompok ada siswa yang pasif dan
kurang kooperatif maka kelompok tersebut tidak dapat mencapai tujuan.
Hal senada diungkapkan oleh Hsiung (2010) ”Considerable evidence exists to suggest
that stuents who study cooperatively reap significant benefits in terms of their learning
72 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 performance. However, sooner or later, most cooperative learning teams have to deal with
one or more members whose actions disturb the team. Unless these problems are quickly
resolved, the cooperative learning team gradually becomes dysfunctional and the benefits of
cooperative learning are diminished”. Artinya, banyak bukti menyatakan bahwa siswa yang
belajar secara kooperatif itu akan mendatangkan manfaat yang signifikan terkait dengan
proses perilaku pembelajaran siswa. Namun, cepat atau lambat tim pembelajaran harus
berhadapan dengan satu atau lebih siswa yang perilakunya mengganggu tim tersebut. Jika,
permasalahan tidak diselesaikan, tim pembelajaran ini secara bertahap tidak berfungsi dan
manfaatnya tidak ada.

Metode Pembelajaran Jigsaw Inovatif
Arends
(2008:13)
mengatakan
bahwa
pembelajaran
dengan
metode
jigsawdikembangkan dan diuji oleh Elliot Aronson dan rekan-rekan sejawatnya. Metode
jigsaw ini kemudiandipopulerkan oleh Robert Slavin dan kawan-kawan. Dalam dunia
pendidikan di Indonesia, khususnya bagi kalangan guru metode jigsawsangat populer. Sebab,
setiap kegiatan workshop dan seminar pendidikan yang berkaitan dengan pembelajaran selalu
dikenalkan dan disimulasikan metode jigsaw. Metode jigsaw sangat mudah dilakukan dan
diterapkan oleh guru dalam segala macam mata pelajaran di sekolah. Seperti pendapat Slavin
(2005:246) bahwa metodejigsaw adalah salah satu dari metode-metode kooperatif yang paling
fleksibel. Guru bahasa Indonesia juga sering menggunakan metode jigsaw untuk mengajarkan
materi pelajarannya dengan teks sebagai basis pembelajaran sesuai pedoman Kurikulum 2013
(K-13).
Penerapan metode jigsaw ini dapat digambarkan Arends (2008:13) dalam paparannya
sebagai berikut. Pertama, siswa dikelompokkan dalam tim yang berjumlah lima sampai enam
orang. Berbagai materi pelajaran disajikan kepada siswa dalam bentuk teks. Setiap siswa
bertanggung jawab untuk mempelajari satu topik materinya dan satu atau dua orang menjadi
ahli (expert). Kedua, para anggota dari tim yang berbeda berkumpul untuk mempelajari topik
yang sama dalam kelompok ahli (expert group). Ketiga, masing-masing anggota ahli tersebut
kembali ke tim asalnya (home teams) untuk mengajarkan kepada teman-temannya. Misalnya,
dalam tim diberikan teks tentang materi pelajaran proses morfologis. Masing-masing siswa
diberi tanggung jawab untuk mempelajari subtopik afiksasi, reduplikasi, komposisi, atau
klitisasi. Satu atau dua orang menjadi ahli (expert) yang bertugas mempelajari topik yang
terdiri atas beberapa subtopik tersebut. Keempat, siswa dari setiap tim berkumpul untuk
mempelajari subtopik yang sama yang disebut kelompok ahli (expert group). Kelima, masingmasing siswa kembali ke tim asal untuk menyampaikan atau mengajarkan tentang topik yang
telah didalaminya dari kelompok ahli kepada teman-temannya di kelompok asal. Keenam,
guru mengevaluasi hasil yang telah dilakukan oleh para siswa dalam pembelajaran kooperatif
dengan metode jigsawtersebut.
Pembelajaran dengan metode jigsaw inovatif maksudnya menghadirkan teks yang
dilaksanakan dengan cara penulisan berantai. Dalam pembelajaran tersebut terdapat enam
aspek kegiatan. Keenam aspek kegiatan tersebut adalah (1) pengkondisian, (2) pelaksanaan
atau penulisan berantai, (3) pembahasan atau diskusi kelompok, (4) presentasi hasil atau
diskusi kelas, (5) penulisan mandiri untuk melanjutkan menjadi teks utuh, dan (6) penilaian/
evaluasi guru.
Pertama: Kegiatan Pengkondisian

Guru membagikan kertas kosong (HVS atau folio) kepada setiap siswa
Guru meminta setiap siswa untuk menuliskan nama teman dalam
kelompoknya. Dengan urutan, nomor 1 adalah nama dirinya, nomor 2 nama
teman di sebelah kanannya, nomor 3 dan seterusnya juga sama.
Sebelum melaksanakan kegiatan pengkondisian (prakondisi) guru menyiapkan segala
sesuatu agar proses pembelajaran menulis teks eksposisi dengan metode jigsaw secara
berantai dapat berlangsung dengan lancar. Guru menjelaskan secara komprehensif tentang
pembelajaran tersebut dan materi yang akan dibahas. Setelah prakondisi, yakni kegiatan
pengkondisian guru membentuk kelompok secara heterogen yang terdiri atas 5 siswa setiap
kelompoknya. Pembentukan kelompok dan nama kelompok sepenuhnya merupakan
kreativitas guru yang bersangkutan.
Setelah kelompok terbentuk maka guru meminta agar siswa mengelompok sesuai
dengan hasil undiannya dan menyuruh siswa agar duduk melingkar. Selanjutnya, guru
membagikan kertas kosong (HVS atau folio) kepada setiap siswa kemudian diminta untuk
menuliskan nama-nama anggota kelompoknya. Urutan nomor satu adalah nama dirinya,
nomor 2 dan seterusnya adalah nama anggota yang dimulai dari sisi sebelah kanannya.
Misalnya, memberi nama kelompok dengan nama bunga, nama sungai besar, atau nama
gunung di Indonesia.

Langkah-langkahnya
Semua siswa yang bernomor urut 1 disuruh membuat kalimat pertama
Pembuatan kalimat pertama selesai, kertas langsung diberikan kepada
teman di sebelah kanannya yang bernomor urut 2. Siswa kedua langsung
membuat kalimat, yakni meneruskan kalimat pertama
Pembuatan kalimat kedua selesai, kertas langsung diberikan kepada teman
di sebelah kanannya yang bernomor urut 3. Siswa ketiga langsung
membuat kalimat, yakni meneruskan kalimat pertama dan kedua
Pembuatan kalimat ketiga selesai, kertas langsung diberikan kepada
teman di sebelah kanannya yang bernomor urut 4. Siswa keempat
langsung membuat kalimat, yakni meneruskan kalimat pertama, kedua,
dan ketiga
Pembuatan kalimat keempat selesai, kertas langsung diberikan kepada
teman di sebelah kanannya yang bernomor urut 5. Siswa kelima langsung
membuat kalimat, yakni meneruskan kalimat pertama, kedua, ketiga, dan
keempat.
Ketiga:
Kegiatan Pembahasan
Pada kegiatan pembahasan internal ini materinya telah ditentukan oleh guru sejumlah
anggota kelompok. Jika anggotanya lima siswa, maka materinya dapat ditentukan lima Pokok
Bahasan (PB). Misalnya, PB 1: Penentuan Judul Teks, PB 2: Isi Teks, PB 3: Penulisan Ejaan
dalam Teks, PB 4: Penggunaan Kata/ Diksi dalam Teks, dan PB 5: Kohesifitas dan
Koherenitas Teks. Kelima materi PB itu sudah ada dalam teks yang telah dibuat atau ditulis
oleh kelima siswa secara berantai tersebut. Selanjutnya, guru menentukan koordinatordiskusi
internal pada setiap PB. Misalnya, siswa A dalam kelompok menjadi koordinator/ pemandu
diskusi PB 1, siswa B/ PB 2, siswa C/ PB 3, siswa D/ PB 4, dan siswa E/ PB 5.
74 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Keempat: Kegiatan Presentasi
Kegiatan presentasi/ diskusi kelas, setiap kelompok mempresentasikan hasil
pembahasan diskusi dalam kelompok/ hasil diskusi internal. Hal-hal yang penting dari hasil
pembahasan tersebut pada setiap teks disajikan oleh kelompok. Setiap anggota yang menjadi
koordinator/ pemandudiskusi dalam kelompok secara bergiliran menjadi penyaji pada diskusi
kelas. Masukan dan saran dari anggota kelompok lain dicatat sebagai bahan perbaikan. Semua
kegiatan diskusi kelas dipantau oleh guru sebagai fasilitator dan narasumber. Segala
pertanyaan atau jawaban yang keliru atau menyimpang diluruskan oleh guru yang
bersangkutan dengan berbagai alasan dan penjelasan. Para anggota kelompok kemudian
memperbaiki hasil masukan dan saran, baik dari teman-teman kelompok lain maupun
gurunya. Dalam kegiatan presentasi ini semua siswa terlibat dalam diskusi kelas dan tanya
jawab yang dapat menjadikan siswa berpikiran kritis dan mengasah keterampilan bertanya/
berbicara.
Kelima: Kegiatan Penulisan Mandiri
Teks eksposisi pada setiap paragraf telah diperbaiki setelah kegiatan presentasi.
Selanjutnya, setiap siswa diminta untuk membawa satu lembar kertas kepada siswa yang
tertera pada nomor urut 1 yang berupa teks eksposisi dalam sebuah paragraf yang sudah benar
tersebut.
Keenam: Kegiatan Penilaian
Hasil teks eksposisi yang berupa karangan utuh kemudian dikoreksi oleh guru untuk
mendapatkan penilaian. Penilaian guru didasarkan pada substansi teks eksposisi, struktur
bahasa yang digunakan, pengembangan paragraf, kohesifitas, dan koherenitas antarkalimat
dalam paragraf atau antarparagraf dalam karangan. Hasil karangan yang bagus dinilai dengan
skor tinggi dan dapat dipasang di mading (majalah dinding) sekolah atau buku buletin
sekolah. Langkah-langkah pembelajaran menulis teks eksposisi dengan metode jigsaw secara
berantai dapat mempelajari materi secara komprehensif.

Simpulan
Metodejigsaw secara berantai dibagi menjadi enam aspek kegiatan, yaitu (1)
pengkondisian, (2) pelaksanaan, (3) pembahasan, (4) presentasi, (5) penulisan mandiri,
dan (6) penilaian/ evaluasi guru.
Pembelajaran teks eksposisi dengan metode jigsaw secara berantai pada dasarnya
merupakan pijakan. Teks eksposisi hanya merupakan sarana materi pembelajaran.
Justru yang paling penting dan utama adalah cara menghasilkan teks itu sendiri, yaitu
dihasilkan dengan cara penulisan berantai.

Abstract
This study aims to know and describe the influence of Shooping List game towards
students’ vocabulary mastery. This study used experimental method. The population of this
study was all of the students at the second semester of MTs RaudlatulJannah. Two classes
were used as the sample of this study. They were one class as experimental class and one
class as control class. The writer took the classes randomly (cluster random sampling). There
were two variables investigated in this study, the independent variable was Shopping
List game and the dependent variable was students’ vocabulary mastery. The data of this
study were obtained by giving 50 vocabulary test items with four options: a, b, c, and d
(multiple choices). Then to analyze the influence of Shopping List game towards students’
vocabulary mastery, the writer used t-test. In this study, the writer calculated the score of
experimental class and control class. For experimental class found that = 70.86. For control
class found that = 48.82. The findings of this study revealed that the score of
was
(
= 9.84 and
for significant level 5% = 1.98 and 1% = 2.62), so
higher than
the hypothesis was accepted. It could be concluded that there was positive influence of
Shopping List game towards students’ vocabulary mastery.

INTRODUCTION
This research examines the influence of Shopping List game towards students’
vocabulary mastery. Vocabulary is one of language components. In learning English at Junior
High School, the students are also demanded to learn about those four skills of language. To
master them, they must have adequate vocabulary. Because without vocabulary, the students
cannot speak English and listen what the speaker mean. Not only those, but the students are
difficult to comprehend English text even writing in English. That’s why the students should
have many vocabularies. It is supported by Wilkins in Thornbury (2002: 13) states that
“Without grammar very little can be conveyed, without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed”.
Based on the interview with an English teacher during preliminary research, the writer
found that the students only learn English from an English book of the seventh class. The
teacher has never used Shopping List game in teaching vocabulary. The writer thinks that
there are so many techniques in teaching vocabulary in the classroom. It is used because
vocabulary is complex and very important component of language. So it needs full attention
to teach it in the classroom.
One of techniques that can be used is game. The use of game in the classroom has many
advantages. The writer mentions the advantages of using games according to Carrier (1980: 6)
namely:
1.
Games give a variety of tools to facilitate the teaching-learning process.
2.
Games are flexible.
3.
Games make the lesson less monotonous.
4.
Games raise the students’ motivation.
5.
Games make students produce language subconsciously.
6.
Games stimulate students’ participation and give them confidence.
7.
Games transform the teacher’s role from that of formal instructor to that of an
organizer or/and moderator of the class.
8.
Games can also serve as a testing mechanism.
There are three previous studies that related to the use of game towards vocabulary
mastery. First, comes from Azar (2012) entitled “The Effect of Games on EFL Learners’
Vocabulary Learning Strategies”. The objective of this research was to describe whether
games can help EFL students learnvocabulary effectively?. There were 23 students between
the ages of 10 and 13 all inbeginner level in the class. Within fourweeks the researcher tried
to apply as many games as possible in our classes at the language Institution to learn
fromlearners' reactions whether they were interested in games or not and if games could help
improve theirexisting vocabulary.
Secondresearch by Tuan (2012) entitled “Vocabulary Recollection through Games “.To
examine whether games influence young learners’ vocabulary recollection in Way Ahead
classes at Ngoi Nha Thong Thai Elementary School (The House of Wisdom Elementary
School), Vietnam. The population of the research comprised 121 students in six classes of
Way Ahead at Ngoi Nha Thong Thai Elementary School (The House of Wisdom Elementary
School). This research entailed a quasi-experimental research design. The impact of using
games on the learners’ vocabulary retention was based on quantitative analyses of the results
of the pretest and posttests. The results of the pretest and two posttests indicate that the
experimental group surpassed the control one in recollecting concrete object words during the
immediate retention stage and the delayed retention one. The results of this research may have
the following implications for the teaching and learning of vocabulary at Ngoi Nha Thong
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 79 Thai Elementary School (The House of Wisdom Elementary School) in particular and in other
elementary schools in general.
Third, by Efendi (2013) entitled “TheUseof Gamesto ImproveVocabularyMastery”. The
objective of this research was to describe the way of “got it game” and “back to the board
game” in improving vocabulary mastery of the seventh grade students of SMPN 5
Malang.The research design of this study is classroom action research (CAR). The result of
this study was the use of games was success in improving students’ vocabulary mastery
because the result after treatment was higher than the minimum standard score in the criteria
of success.
The result of students’ vocabulary mastery during preliminary research found that the
students’ vocabulary mastery needs to be improved. This study aims to know and describe the
influence of Shopping List game towards students’ vocabulary mastery at the second semester
of the seventh class. So, the present study focus on the influence of shopping List game
towards’ students vocabulary mastery.
2.
BACKGROUND
2.1
Concept of Vocabulary
Language has the main position when communication is occurred. Language consists of
a series of words. As Thornburry (2002: 1) says “all languages have words. In English those
words are called vocabulary. Since we have been born until now, we have been using words
in communication. It means that vocabulary is the central in producing language. It is
supported by Thornburry (2002: 1) who states that “without grammar very little can be
conveyed, without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed”.
English in Indonesia is taught as a foreign language. As a foreign language, it is difficult
by students to master all components about English. However, the basic component in
learning a language is vocabulary. It is supported by Thornburry (2002: 72) who states that
“vocabulary is central to the learning of a foreign language at primary level”.
To make our teaching vocabulary is easier; we should pay attention five essential steps
in vocabulary learning based on research into learner strategies according to Hatch and Brown
(1995: 372) in Cameron (2001: 84):
1.
Having sources for encountering new words
2.
Getting a clear image, whether visual or auditory or both, for the forms of the new
words
3.
Learning the meaning of the words
4.
Making a strong memory connection between the forms and meanings of the
words
5.
Using the words
Besides teaching by using the five steps above, as an English teacher we should learn
some factors to decide kind of material that will be thought. Thornbury (2002: 75-76), states
that before giving new vocabulary, the teachers should decide to teach a related set of word by
using the following factors:
1.
The level of the learners (whether beginners, intermediate, or advanced)
2.
The learners’ likely familiarity with the words (learners may have met the words
before even though they are not part of their active vocabulary)
3.
The difficulty of the items – whether, for example, they express abstract rather
than concrete meanings, or whether they are difficult to pronounce
80 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 4.
5.
Their ‘teachability’ – whether, for example, they can be easily explained or
demonstrated
Whether items are being learned for production (in speaking or writing) or for
recognition only (as in listening and reading)
Teaching vocabulary in the class needs some implications. The implication of these
findings for the teaching based on Thornbury (2002: 30) :
1.
Learners need task and strategies to help them organize their mental lexicon by
building networks of associations - the more the better.
2.
Teachers need to accept that the learning of new words involves a period of
‘initial fuzziness’.
3.
Learners need to wean themselves off a reliance on direct translation from their
mother tongue.
4.
Words need to be presented in their typical contexts, so that learners can get a feel
for their meaning, their register, their collocations, and their syntactic
environments.
5.
Teaching should direct attention to the sound of new words, particularly the way
they are stressed.
6.
Learners should aim to build a threshold vocabulary as quickly as possible.
7.
Learners need to be actively involved to the learning of words.
8.
Learners need multiple exposures to words and they need to retrieve words from
memory repeatedly.
9.
Learners need to make multiple decisions about words.
10. Memory of new words can be reinforced if they are used to express personally
relevant meanings.
11. Not all the vocabulary that the learners need can be ‘taught’: learners will need
plentiful exposure to talk and text as well as training for self-directed learning.
2.2
Concept of Using Game
Game is a competition which at the end consists of the winner and loser. Game creates
enjoyment. It is better if game used in teaching and learning. Especially for learning foreign
language, game can reduce students’ stress.Patricia (2003: 233) states that “games are
associated with fun”. It is supported by Wright, Andrew et al (2006: 1) who says that ‘game’
to mean an activity which is entertaining and engaging, often challenging, and an activity
which the learners play and usually interact with others.
Everyone likes game especially children. Paul (2003: 49) states that “Games play a
central role in a child – centered lesson and make it possible for children to fully immerse
themselves in learning.According to Wright, Andrew et al (2006: 2) that games help and
encourage many learners to sustain their interest and work. It means learning by using game
can increase learners’ enthusiastic. Therefore games are called the interesting way because
game can increase students’ interest in learning English.
The writer mentions the advantages of using games according to Carrier (1980: 6)
namely:
1.
Games give a variety of tools to facilitate the teaching-learning process.
2.
Games are flexible.
3.
Games make the lesson less monotonous.
4.
Games raise the students’ motivation.
5.
Games make students produce language subconsciously.
6.
Games stimulate students’ participation and give them confidence.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 81 7.
Games transform the teacher’s role from that of formal instructor to that of an
organizer or/and moderator of the class.
8.
Games can also serve as a testing mechanism.
http://www.teoriaypraxis.uqroo.mx/doctos/Numero4/Martinez-Perez-Portillo.pdf
The advantages of games are not only for the learners, but also for the teacher. Wright,
Andrew et al (2006: 2) states that games also help the teacher to create context in which the
language is useful and meaningful. It means Games can help the teacher to create the material
more specific. So that, students can receive the material easily. Richard-Amato A. Patricia
(2003: 233) says that games can develop and reinforce concepts (e.g., colors, shapes,
numbers, word definitions), add diversions to the regular classroom activities, and even break
the ice, particularly in the case of true beginners.
2.3
Concept of Shopping List Game
In this research, the writer used the procedure of Shopping List game in “Have Fun with
Vocabulary” by Barnes et al (1996: 16, 85). Based on the procedure, the writer defines that
Shopping List game is a language game where the students are asked to find and classify the
things based on the category.
The writer assumes that Shopping List game has many advantages. One of the most
important advantages is to increase students’ vocabulary mastery. It is suitable with the title of
this book. But the goal of this game is more specific, namely to understand about the certain
category. It is also supported by Barnes et al in the procedure (1996: 16) namely give each
group a copy of the handout on page 85. Tell them that they must sort the items into countable
and uncountable and write them in the correct columns. It means each group gets the list of
things then classifies them so that the students can find new words easily.
To make this game more interested, the writer thinks that it can be made a variation
without change the procedure. For example we can replace countable and uncountable things
into name of animals, name of vegetables, medical equipments, etc. But it still focuses on
nouns that are name of things that can be bought.
This game can build students’ social interaction and solidarity because based on the
procedure, Shopping List game is a game which played in group. The students are divided
into two groups. One group consists of boys and one other group consists of girls. So they can
discuss it with their group.
Not only them, but this game is also fun. It is supported by Barnes et al (1996: 1) who
state that “not only do the quizzes generate a wealth of useful vocabulary and discussion, but
they have proved to be a lot of fun”.
2.4
Procedures of Teaching Vocabulary by Using Shopping List Game
Below are the procedures of teaching vocabulary by using shopping list game according

RESEARCH METHOD
The goal of this research intended to find out the influence of Shopping List game in
teaching vocabulary, therefore this research based on the experimental method. In this
research, the writer took two classes’ namely experimental class and control class.
Experimental class was taught by using Shopping List game. Control class wastaught by
using translation technique.
There were two variables in this research. The first was independent variable (Shopping
List game) symbolized by (X). The second was dependent variable (students’ vocabulary
mastery) symbolized by (Y).
The population of this research was the students at the second semester of seventh class
at MTs RaudlatulJannahNatar Lampung Selatan. Then the writer took two classes as the
sample of research. The classes are the experimental class and the control class. The writer
taught vocabulary by using Shopping List game in the experimental class. Whereas in the
control class, the writer taught by using translation technique.
In this research, the writer usedCluster Random sampling technique. It was used
because the sample was classes not individuals and the ability of population were
homogeneous.
To get the data of the students’ vocabulary mastery, the writer gave the test to the
sample. The type of test was the objectives test namely multiple choices. There are 50
vocabulary test items with four options: a, b, c, and d, the score of each item is 2.
Content validity was used to know the validity of test item. It meant that the test items
were designed based on the course book that the students used in school and designed based
on the curriculum of MTs.
Whereas to determine reliability of the test, the writer used‘Split Half Technique’ with
the following steps:
1.
Give try out items test to the students that are taken from out of the sample.
2.
Divide the items test into odd and even.
3.
Analyze the test by using Product Moment Formula.
n  xy  (  x ) (  y )
rxy 

{n  x  (  x ) 2 }{n  y 2  (  y ) 2
4.
Calculate the reliabilities of the item test by using Spearman Brown Formula as
follows:
5.
Consult the result with the criteria reliability as follows:

Reliability Coefficient 0.200 – 0.400 is low
Reliability Coefficient 0.00 – 0.200 is very low(Arikunto, 2006: 276)
There were five analyses in this research. The analyses included of normality of the test;
homogeneity of variance; hypothesis of test; testing of equally of two average score; and
testing of the different of two average score.
The first analysis was normality of the test. It analyzed to know whether the data have
normal distribution or no. The writer used Chi-Square ratio (

The third was hypothesis. After giving the test and corrected it, the writer found the
result of test given. It was possible to know the influence of using shopping list game towards
students’ vocabulary mastery. The statistical formula that was used by the writer in this
research is T-test. Before using T-test, the writer determined the average ( ) and the variance

Abstract
This research points out the errors analysis in students’ writing and it is aimed to
decsribe the types of errors found in the students’ writing result made by Junior, Senior, and
University students, to know the frequencies of each type of errors found in the students’
writing result made by Junior, Senior, and University Students, to explain the similarities and
differences types of errors found in the students’ writing result made by Junior, Senior, and
University students, and to investigate the causes of errors found in the students’ writing
result made by Junior, Senior, and University students.
There are three types of errors namely lexical error (22,46%), syntactical error
(199,41%), and discourse error (100,37%). These types of errors have 13 categories of errors;
1) spelling; 2) false friend; 3) to be; 4) bound morpheme s/es; 5) verb tense; 6) articles
(a,an,the); 7) preposition; 8) to infinitive; 9) modal auxiliary; 10) passive voice; 11) cohesion;
12) ceherence; and 13) generic structure. There are eighteen error cases. The researcher found
junior students made more errors than senior and university students, there are 91 errors
sentences in junior students, whereas senior students have 43 erroneous sentences and
university students have 35 erroneous sentences. The similarities of errors found in junior,
senior and university students are: Omission of Bound Morpheme‘s/es’ as the Plural Marker,
Using Verb 1 for Past Event, Using Incorrect Verb 2, False Friend, Omission Errors in the
Form of Preposition, Using Verb 1 after to Infinitive, Using Verb 1 after Modal Auxiliary,
and Using Passive Voice Form Incorrectly. While, the differences errors found in junior,
senior and university students are: The Use of Copula ‘Be’ Present Tense for Past Event in
Junior Students, It does not find in Senior and University students’ composition. The errors
such as additional ‘Be’ for Past Event and Omission “Be” for past event that found in Junior
and Senior students, but it does not include in university students’ composition. The
researcher found error. It is omission Errors in the Form of the Article (a, an, the) in Junior
Students but It does not include in Senior and University’s composition.
There are four causes that lead students to errors, they are overgeneralization,
incomplete application of rules, false concept hypothesized, and ignorance of rule restrictions.
For this case, ignorance of rule restrictions is the most highest cause of error that occured in
the students’ writing with the percentage 114,74%. The error occured because the students fail
to apply the rule of grammar in target language.
Keywords: comparative, error analysis, interlanguage, grammar, writing.

INTRODUCTION
Teaching learning English as a foreign language in Indonesia still face lot of problems.
Somehow mastering second language in transferring knowledge of second language system
must be controlled very well. Learners need consultant who getting of the best of mastering
second language system. Moreover, Fauziati (2010) says that most of learning problems are
caused by different elements found between the two languages. Therefore, the researcher will
be able to learn the elements of the target language which are similar to those with his own
more easily than those which are not found in his native language. On the other hand, it is
difficult for Indonesian to use correct structure in English.
While in this reseeach, teaching learning English also has given in three institutions,
SMPN 1 Kajen Pekalongan, SMAN 1 Kajen Pekalongan, and University of Pekalongan.As
the studentslearn more aboutEnglish, many errors will appear. Not only do they replace one
tense with the other tense(s), but also they fail to construct the correct verb forms for these
tenses. In the same case the researcher finds some errors done by the students of these three
institutions. They often make in their writings. Based on pre-observation result, the researcher
asked the students of in SMPN 1 Kajen Pekalongan, SMAN 1 Kajen Pekalongan, and
University of Pekalongan to make the narrative text. Below arethe examples of student’s
writing products:
94 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 One day Kancil go to forest because he is hungry. He is saw mentimun.
Kancil liked mentimun very much. He looked left and looked right, than, he ate
all mentimun. The mentimunare fresh. Kancil didn’t know Pak Tani is see him.....
(writing result of class VIII student)
One day in Arabian city, a woman went to the market and bought a
beautiful hen.
A few days later, to her surprise, the hen laid a silver egg. The woman
thought that if the hen culd lay more than one egg each day, she would never
work again.
So the woman decided to make the hen eat more, so that it could lay more
eggs. But unfortunately the hen died because indigestion, and did not lay eggs at
all.(writing result of class XI student)
A fisherman fishing all day, but he did not catch anything. In the evening,
he caught one very small fish.
“Please, don’t eat me. Please, I am too small to make you a good dinner.
Please, back me to the water. Later, when I bigger, you can catch me again.
“No, no,” said the fisherman. “I’m going to keep you. If you get back into
water, you will never come near me again.”
Then, the fisherman put the little fish in his pond at the back yard. When the
fish bigger, it became a good friend of the fisherman. He never wanted to eat the
fish. (writing result of second semester of university student)
These errors were caused by the difference between the rules of the language used by
the students (Indonesian) and the rules of target language.
students’ error system influenced by mother tongue system (Indonesian) to express the
idea;
The students used rules of Indonesian system in English, such as “He is liked
mentimun” should be written “He liked mentimun”.
This is mostly because the students are influenced by their mother tongue on the
acquisition of the new structure. However, the students are still weak in English, especially in
their writing skill. They still seem to commit errors in all aspect of language. Errors in writing
such as tenses, prepositions and weak vocabulary are the most common and frequent type of
errors that are committed by learners. The learners usually face difficulties in learning the
grammatical aspects of the Target Language (TL), such as in subject-verb agreement, the use
of preposition, articles and the use of correct tense. According to Zhang (2011) said that:
errors can be seen clearly in the learners’ written performance that the students are
bound to encounter would be weak vocabulary, inappropriate use of grammar in
sentence etc.
Actually, learning second language system needs good environment neither the teacher
nor technique nor method that supports mastering second language system. When the teachers
are not control second language system properly, transferring knowledge in second language
learning can cause an error of the result. Error of transferring knowledge of second language
is one of some sources error in student’s result in learning second language.
With regard to such errors, on the one hand, there are other related previous studies that
confirm the such a view. First, Darus & Ching (2009) investigated common errors in written
English essays of form one Chinese students: a case study. The results of the study show that
four most common errors are mechanics (2.73), tense (1.73), preposition (1.29) and subject
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 95 verb agreement (1.24). Second, Hussain, et. al (2013) investigated an error analysis of L2
writing at higher secondary level in Multan, Pakistan. The total errors of punctuation were 72
with an error rate of 1.37%. Errors of capitalization were also found frequently. Total errors
of capitalization were 71, with an error rate of 1.35%. The highest error rate in the study is
related to error of verbs. There were 164 errors with an error rate of 3.18%. There were 40
errors with a rate of 0.76%. The errors of preposition in this study figured very high with an
error of 0.70%. The errors involved omitting prepositions, or adding unnecessary preposition.
The total number of errors of noun was 25 with an error rate of 0.48%. The error rate of
conjunction was 0.08%. The total error of adjective was only seven with an error rate of
0.13%. Five errors of passives with an error rate of 0.10% were found. Five errors of negation
were found with an error rate of 0.10%. Four errors of translation were found with a rate of
0.08%. Literal translation from the mother tongue also induced many errors among the
learners. The researcher found some examples of errors that seemed to have been caused by
literal translation. The researchers found many errors of overgeneralization also in the tests.
The researchers also found many errors which were due from incomplete application of rules.
Some of the errors as discussed among the learners were due to ignorance of rules restriction.
Third, Al-Khasawneh (2014) was interested in error analysis of written English
paragraphs by Jordanian undergraduate students: a case study. The findings of the study
reveal that that the students of Ajloun National University have committed several errors such
as: spelling, word order, and subject-verb agreement. The results also showed that the most
frequent error committed by the students was the improper use of English articles. The
frequency of errors are included in the categories of error such as Wrong Use of Articles
13.3%, Wrong Use of Prepositions 12.4%, Subject-Verb Agreement 12.3%, Word Order 44
10.3%, Verb Tense 43 10%, Singular and Plural Forms 9.4%, Spelling 8.9%, Capitalization
7.2%, Fragment 6.4%, Demonstratives 5.6%, Irregular Verbs 18 4.2%.
Fourth, Hau Tse (2014) focused on a case study of grammatical errors made by
Malaysian students. The findings revealed a total of 797 errors. Six significant errors occurred
in the sample were a) singular/plural noun; b) articles; c) prepositions; d)
adjective/noun/adverb; e) subject-verb agreement; and f) tenses. There are various ways to
cope with errors, for instance, ‘process writing’ and ‘peer correction; they are recommended
to help the learners avoid making errors.
Fifth, Krishnasamy (2015) focused on grammatical error analysis in writing of ESL
diploma students. Based on the findings, it is shown that there are three most common types
of grammatical errors identified from the students‟ writing which are errors in Tenses, SVA
and Verb. It is discovered that most of the errors in the use of Tenses are those under the main
category of Simple Past Tense which cover 80,75%o f the total errors. This is followed by the
errors in the use of Past Progressive represented by an amount of 10.16%. The remaining
9.09% constitute the errors in the use of Past Perfect Tense.
Thus, This current research is different from other studies due to the main point on
comparative error of students’ writing in different levels and investigates the types of errors
then linguistic category and surface strategy taxonomy are used in classification of error and
focuses to identify the types of lexical errors, syntactical errors and discourse errors;
describing the frequency of each type of errors; explain; the dominant type of error; and then
the researcher will follow the theory from Richard (1971) to investigate the cause of errors.
As a result, the purpose of the present study is four folds: 1) to describe the types of
errors are found in the students’ writing result made by Junior, Senior, and University
Students; 2) to know the frequencies of each type of errors found in the students’ writing
result made by Junior, Senior, and University Students; 3) to explain the similarities and
differences types of errors are found in the students’ writing result made by Junior, Senior,
96 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 and University Students; 4) to investigate the causes of errors are found in the students’
writing result made by Junior, Senior, and University Students.
B.
RESEARCH METHOD
This research applies descriptive qualitative method. According to Fraenkel, et.al (2012:
425) qualitative research is the famous method to be used in variety fields, these include
comparison between alternative methods of teaching (as in experimental research); examining
research among variable (as in correlation relationship); comparing groups of individuals (as
in causal comparative method); or surveying different groups of educational professionals,
such as teachers, administrators, and counselors (as in survey research).
The subject of research are eight grade students of SMP N 1 Kajen Pekalongan,
eleventh grade students of SMA N 1 Kajen Pekalongan and second semester English students
of Pekalongan University. The researcher took 10 students in each level. The researcher took
them randomly, the total of participants 30 students.
The object of the study is comparative type of errors on students’ written form
sentences containing errors will take from different level of students’ composition in (written
production) between junior, senior and university students.
The data are students’ errors in writing. The erroneous sentences are taken from 30
pieces of students’ writing junior, senior and university students, there are 10 pieces from
each levels.
To collect the data the researcher uses elicitation method. The procedure of collecting
the data, the researcher prepared some document and some complement. The writer got the
data of the students’ English writing from one source: the writing narrative text.
In analyzing data, the researcher used the procedures of error analysis suggested by
Brown (1980), namely: error identification, error classification, and error explanation. Then
the researcher will use analysis (EA) will carry out to analyze or identify the grammar errors.
Next, the writer will analyze the collected data by using some steps: and Brown (2007: 260)
further says that there are two steps to analysis the data such identification and describing
errors.
C.
FINDING AND DISCUSSION
In this section the writer intends to describe the type of errors, to know the frequency
each type of errors, to describe the similarities and the differences of errors, and the last point
about the causes of errors of data erroneous sentences made by Junior, Senior, and University
students.
1.
Types
of
Errors Made by Junior, Senior, and University Students
The researcher finds errors in students’ writing composition. Here, will be discussed the
types of errors made by Junior, Senior, and University students.
a.
Lexical Error
Lexis describes about the words and meaning of the English words then the aim of
lexis study to represent the meaning of each word in the language and show how the
meaning of words in a language are interrelated.
1)
Spelling
Spelling is writing or stating the letters and diacritics of a word. Words generally
have accepted standard spellings which can vary regionally or nationally.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 97 In this case the students write some wrong spelling in English. The errors are
caused by their ignorance of the writing of the word in English. So, the students write
with the wrong spelling. The student gets wrong in spelling of the word, such as the
sentence : “The monkey always spent anything”. The student writes the word
”enything”, when the student means “anything” The students’ errors are caused by the
limitation and the lacking of students’ vocabulary in English.
2)
False Friend
False friends are pairs of words or phrases in two languages or dialects (or letters
in two alphabets) that look or sound similar, but different significantly in meaning. In
this case, the errors are caused by confusion of students to write the word or phrase
because of the word or phrase look or sound similar.
In this case the students write some wrong spelling in English such as “Than
rabbit ran and tiger race”. The student uses the word ‘’than’’ for the word “then”. The
sentence must be “Then rabbit ran and tiger race”. The student can not differentiate the
use of the words or phrases that look or sound similar. The errors are caused by their
ignorance of the writing of the word in English. So, the students write the words or
phrases with the wrong spelling.
b.
Syntactical Error
Syntax is the structure of language or grammar; syntax consists of tenses, subject,
verb, preposition, conjunction and other words to make sentences, so that syntax is the
knowledge about grammar and description of word classes, sometimes these were called
part of speech, and how to numbers of these classes go together to form phrase and
sentences.
1)
To be
Forms of the verb “to be” include: is, was, am, are, be, being, been, has been, may
be, and were. ‘Be’ used after some nouns to describe the person that someone will soon
be or the position that they will soon have.
a) The Use of Copula ‘Be’ Present Tense for Past Event
In this case, the students do not use the past tense ‘be’ as predicate such as
the sentence: “Her name is Tinker Bell”. The student uses ‘is’ as predicate for the
past tense. The sentence must be “Her name was Tinker Bell”. Because the phrase
“Her name’’ indicates the singular subject, so, it must use ‘was’ as predicate for
copula be in the sentence. The students’ errors influenced by the target language.
it is because the confusion of the using copula ‘be’ present tense for past.
b) Addition ‘Be’ for Past Event
The simple past is used to make statements about events at last time. In this
case the students add be (is) for past event. Errors are caused by confusion of the
using verb ‘be’ for tenses in English. So the students’ use be (is) for past event.
The students’ Additional ‘Be (is)’ for past event such as in the sentence: “The
rabbit is looked for food in jungle”. The student adds ‘be (is)’ in the sentence that
indicates the past event. The sentence deviates from the rule of standard language.
‘be (is) must be omitted in the sentence. The sentence must be “The rabbit looked
for food in the jungle”. The students’ errors are influenced by target language
because illustrate the learner’s attempt to build up hypothesis about English from
the limited experience of it in the classroom.
c) Omission “Be” for Past Event
In this case the students do not understand the function of be for past event
such as sentence: “The grasshopper hungry”. The students do not add “be”. So
the students omit “to be” in their sentence, the students omit to be that indicates
98 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 the past tense. So, it should be ‘’The grasshopper was hungry’ to indicate the past
tense. The students’ errors are influenced by target language because the students
were borrowing patterns of the mother tongue and expressing meanings using the
words and grammar which are already known about English from the limited
experience of it in the classroom.
2)
Bound Morpheme‘s/es’
Bound morpheme is a morpheme that can not stand alone as an independent word
while carrying the lexical meaning related to the one in the word it is taken from.
a) Omission of Bound Morpheme‘s/es’ as the Plural Marker
In this case the students do not understand the function of –s/-es in the
plural form. The students do not add –s/-es to noun in plural form. So the students
omit –s/-es in their sentence. The students omit the use of bound morpheme –s/-es
such as in the sentence: “All of the fairy have a binary wings”. The student omits –
s/-es that indicates the plural noun. The phrase “binary wings” indicates the plural
noun. The word “fairy’’ indicates for the singular noun. So it must be ‘’fairies’’ to
indicate the plural noun. The students’ errors are influenced by target language
because the students were borrowing patterns of the mother tongue and expressing
meanings using the words and grammar which are already known about English
from the limited experience of it in the classroom.
3)
Verb Tense
In English, there are three basic tenses: present, past, and future. Each has a
perfect form, indicating completed action; each has a progressive form, indicating
ongoing action; and each has a perfect progressive form, indicating ongoing action that
will be completed at some definite time.
a) The Use Verb-1 for Past Event
In this case verb can be categorized as Verb 1 and Verb 2. Verb 1 is used for
Present tense form and V2 missuse for past tense. The students use Verb 1 for past
event that found by the researcher of the students’ written products such as the
sentence: “Rabbit continue his job”. The student uses Verb 1for past event. The
word ‘continue’ of the sentence indicates for the present tense not for the past
tense. The students must use V2 if they want to write the sentence for the past
event. So the sentence must be “Rabbit continued his job”. The errors are caused
by students can not differentiate the use between Verb 1 and Verb 2.
b) The Use of Incorrect Verb 2
In this case verb 2 can be categorized as Regular verb and Irregular verb.
Verb 1 is used for past tense. In this case the students use incorrect verb 2. The
researcher finds examples such as sentence: “The squirrel knowed”. The student
tries to use Verb 2 for past event, but it is false. The sentence should be “The
squirrel knew ”. The errors are caused by students can not differentiate the use of
Regular and Irregular Verb.
4)
Articles (a, an, the)
An article is a word that is used with a noun to indicate the type of reference
being made by the noun.
a) Omission of the Article (a, an, the)
In this case, the students do not write the article in sentence. Errors are
caused by the ignorance of students for the using articles in English for singular
and plural noun. The students omit article such as the sentence:”The rabbit is
looked for food in jungle”.
The student should write down ‘a’ as article that indicate general statement
about any such thing. The sentence should be “The rabbit is looked for food in
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 99 jungle”. The students’ errors are caused by the target language, because the
limited experiences of it in the classroom.
5)
Preposition
A preposition is a other words in a sentence. Prepositions commonly convey the
following relationships: agency (by); comparison (like, as . . . as); direction (to, toward,
through); place (at, by, on); possession (of); purpose (for); source (from, out of); and
time (at, before, on).
a) Omission of Preposition
In this case, the students do not write preposition in sentence errors. So, the
students omit preposition in their sentence. The student’s omission of preposition
such as in the sentence: “There was fighting lion and tiger”. The student omits
‘preposition’. The student must write down ‘between’’. The sentence must be
“There was fighting between lion and tiger”. The students’ errors are caused by
the target language, because the limited experiences of it in the classroom.
6)
To Infinitive
The infinitive is a grammar term that refers to a basic verb form that often acts as a
noun and is often preceded by the word "to."
a) The Use Verb 1 after to Infinitive
In this case, the students do not write verb 1 after to infinitive in sentences
such as: “Turtle ran fast to raced rabbit”. The student writes verb 2 after to
infinitive. The student must write “race”. The sentence must be “Turtle ran fast to
race rabbit”. The students’ errors are caused by the target language, because the
limited experiences of it in the classroom.
7)
Modal Auxiliary
A modal is a verb that combines with another verb to indicate mood or tense. A
modal (also known as a modal auxiliary) expresses necessity, uncertainty, ability, or
permission.
a)
The Use Verb 2 after Modal Auxiliary
In this case, the students do not write verb 1 after to infinitive in sentences
such as: “Tinker Bell must got the magic plant in the dangerous place”. The
student writes verb 2 after modal auxiliary. The student writes “get”. The sentence
must be “Tinker Bell must get the magic plant in the dangerous place”. The
students’ errors are caused by the target language, because the limited experiences
of it in the classroom.
8)
The Use of Unnecessary Passive Voice
In this case, the students do not use passive voice form correctly in sentences such
as: “The party held by a animals unique”. The student does not write to be and verb 3
after to be. The student must write “was hold”. The sentence should be “The party was
hold by an animal unique”. The students’ errors are caused by the target language,
because the limited experiences of it in the classroom.
c.
Discourse Error
Celce-Murcia, et al. (1995: 13–15) described several sub-areas of discourse
competence, four of which are most important with regard to the current model:
Cohesion is conventions regarding use of reference, substitution/ ellipsis, conjunction,
and lexical chains (i.e. Halliday and Hasan, l976).
1)
Cohesion Errors
Cohesion errors are classified into 4 (four) types according to comparative
taxonomy. They are reference, substitution and ellipsis, conjunction and lexical
100 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 cohesion. In this case, the students made 2 (two) types of error, reference and
conjunction.
a) Reference Error
In this case, students make reference errors in their narrative writing such
as:
(1) The use of personal reference ‘they’ to state singular personal pronoun
Students make errors by using ‘they’ to state singular subject such as:
“Than, they to invite many animals for discussion about wood condition”. In
those sentences, personal reference “they” is ambiguous to the readers.
Readers have no way to know what the student’s attitude is ‘They’ may be
meant as the frog, Tinker Bell, and a grasshopper. It is only one subject, but
the student writes they instead of he.
(2) The Use of ‘him’ to State Possessive
In this case, students make error by using personal reference him
instead of possessive his such as:
The frog held a party because the frog was celebration wedding him.
The use of him is incorrect. The student should write, ‘The frog held a party
to celebrate his wedding.’
b) Conjunction Error
Conjunctions must be used to create the logical relation
among the sentences.
In this case, students make 11 (eleven) conjunction errors in terms of the
misuse of then, and then, and suddenly.
(1) Than, they to invite many animals for discustion about wood condition.
(2) Suddenly, came an ant to helped grasshopper.
(3) And than, Glory asked to Odile.
2)
Coherence Error
Coherence error is an error relates to organizational schemata through
conventionally recognized means. In this case, students make coherence errors such as:
“Crocodile: Why, Odile”.
3)
Generic Structure Error
Generic structure is the structure of a text which determines a genre of the text. In
this research, the researcher analyzed narrative texts. The generic structures of narrative
are: Orientation: sets the scene and introduces the participants, Evaluation: a stepping
back to evaluate the plight, Complication: a crisis arises, Resolution : the crisis is
resolved, for better or for worse, Re-orientation : optional.
The researcher does not find any crisis in students’ writing. In text above, there
are only one orientation, that is a presentation of a problem in a story, and one
resolution, that is a solving problem. Thus, the student’s error lies on the omission of
complication.
Title: Tinker Bell
Orientation
Once upon the time, there was a beautiful fairy in a little islands. Her name is
Tinker bell. She has a little body and a long pink hair.
Complication
When she cried, her face became red. All of the fairy had a binary wings. She
could fly in the sky, but they must drink the special potion could be made by a
magic plant, but the plant was fade. Tinker Bell must got the magic plant at the
dangerous place. Then she did it with full of spirit by her spirit.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 101 2.
The
Frequency of Each Type of Errors committed by Students in Junior, Senior and
University Level
To know about the frequency of error types, the researcher uses the formula from Hatch
and Lazaraton (1991: 136) describe to find the frequency on the category as proportion or
percentage that has a small data or large data, it is more informative and it is easy to see the
how important relative to data. Thus, they conduct the formula below: Percentage =
The Frequency of Error Categories of Three Levels
After getting the types of errors then the researcher divides the categories of each
type of errors. In lexical error has spelling and false friend. Syntactical error has eight
categories of errors, they are to be, bound morpheme s/es, verb tense, articles (a,an,the),
preposition, to infinitive, modal auxiliary, and passive voice. While, discourse error can
be divided into three categories namely cohesion, coherent, and generic structure.

The Similarities and Differences of Error Made by Junior, Senior, and University
Students
After getting the percentage of each type of errors and finds the most dominant error in
each level, then the researcher compares the similarities and differences of error that made by
junior, senior, and university students.
a.
The Similarities of Error Made by Junior, Senior, and University Students
The researcher found the similarities of errors in students’ composition. Here will
be discussed the similarities of errors made by Junior, Senior and University students.
The similarities of errors found by researcher are: Omission of Bound Morpheme‘s/es’
as the Plural Marker, Using Verb 1 for Past Event, Using incorrect verb 2, False Friend,
Omission Errors in the Form of Preposition, Using Verb 1 after to Infinitive, Using
Verb1 after modal auxiliary, and Using Passive Voice form incorrectly.
b.
The Differences of Error Made by Junior, Senior, and University Students
There are some differences of errors made by Junior, Senior and University
students. Here will be discussed the differences of errors made by Junior, Senior and
University students as follow: The Use of Copula ‘Be’ Present Tense for Past Event in
Junior Students, It does not find in Senior and University students’ composition. The
errors such as additional ‘Be’ for Past Event and Omission “Be” for past event that
found in Junior and Senior students, but it does not include in university students. The
researcher found error. It is omission Errors in the Form of the Article (a,an,the) in
Junior Students but It does not include in Senior and University’s composition.

The Causes of Errors made by Junior, Senior, and University Students
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 103 In this part, the researcher attempts to investigate the cause of errors. To reveal the
causes of errors, here the researcher follows the theory from Richard (1971: 19-22) that
covers the factors which is related to the cause of errors namely, overgeneralization,
incomplete aplication of rules, false concept hypothesized, and ignorance of rule restrictions.
a.
Overgeneralization
Overgeneralization occurs when learners meet a new pattern or a new rule they
think that the pattern or rule applies to all cases without exception”.
For example, The squirrel knowed.
b.
Incomplete Application of Rules
This case occurs when the students often produce sentences with incomplete
application in the real communication. On the other side, the students do not know the
whole pattern correctly. For example: The grashopper [.....] hungry.
c.
False Concepts Hypothesized
False concept hypothesiszed refers to faulty rule learning at various levels. There
is a class of interlingual errors which derive from faulty comprehension of distinctions
in the target language. for example: Than rabbit and tiger race.
d.
Ignorance of Rule Restriction
This kind of error is closely related to overgeneralization. That is the students fail
to observe the restrictions of certain structures. In this case, they apply a rule in the
context of a sentence where actually it is not necessary. For example: “Rabbit thanks
full to Lion.”
After analyzing the cause of errors, then the researcher counts the data to know the
percentage of each type of error causes. The result of calculations can be seen in the tabel
below.

D.
CONCLUSION
The researcher presents the conclusion at the last part of this paper.
There are three types of errors found in the students’ writing result made by Junior,
Senior, and University Students; lexical errors, syntactical errors, and discourse errors. It is
found the total errors in the students’ writing result made by Junior, Senior, and University
Students are 169 erroneous sentences; lexical errors (22,46%), syntactical errors (199,41%),
and discourse errors (78,14%). The lexical errors have spelling error (8,49%) and false friend
(13,96%). Syntactical errors cover errors in the use of to be (17,98%), bound morpheme
104 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 (25,13%), verb tense (62,66%), articles (2,20%), preposition (8,49%), to infinitive (34,71%),
modal auxiliary (37,47%), passive voice (10,81%). While, discourse errors held cohesion
error (41,12%), coherence error (5,63%), and generic structure error (31,41%).
The similarities of errors found by researcher are omission of bound morpheme ‘s/es’
as the plural marker, using Verb 1 for pastevent, using incorrect verb 2, false friend, omission
of errors in the form of preposition, using Verb 1 after to infinitive, using Verb1 after modal
auxiliary, and using passive voice form incorrectly. The differences of errors made by Junior,
Senior and University students are thatthe use of copula ‘be’ present tense for past event in
Junior students writing result is not found in Senior and University students’ composition.
The errors such as additional ‘be’ for past event and omission “be” for past event found in
Junior and Senior students writing result was not included in university students. The
omission errors in Articles (a,an,the) in Junior students writing result was not included in
Senior and University’s composition.
There are four causes that lead students to errors, they are overgeneralization,
incomplete application of rules, false concept hypothesized, and ignorance of rule restrictions.
For this case, ignorance of rule restrictions is the most highest cause of error that occured in
the students’ writing with the percentage 114,74%. The error occured because the students fail
to apply the rule of grammar in target language.

Abstract
This research is aimed to find out the improving students’ speaking skill through retelling
technique using movie and to know the students’ respond toward the implementation of
retelling technique using movie in speaking class. This research was a classroom action
research. In collecting the data, the researcher applied several techniques including
observation, interview, questionaire and test. Quantitative data is analyzed using a
comparative descriptive analysis by comparing the pre-test score and the pos-test score,
meanwhile the qualitative data were analyzed using data reduction, data serving and taking
the conclusion. The result of the research shows that: Retelling technique using movie can
improve students' speaking skill, which covers some aspect: ideas, opinion, content, language
and delivery. The improvement can also be seen from their result of post test. The mean score
of pre test is 4.59, then increase to 5.91 in post test of cycle 1 and become 7.07 in post test of
cycle 2. On the other hand The students' respond toward implementation of retelling
technique was positive respond. 79% students like the implementation of retelling technique
in English class.
Keywords: Speaking Skill, Retelling technique, Classroom Action Research.

INTRODUCTION
English as major international language has been used and spoken by people in the
world for a long time. It is why English become one of important requirement to get certain
jobs or scholarships especially in Indonesia recently. If people cannot master English
properly, they will not be able to get it. On the other hand, people need skill to support their
ability.
There are four skills such as; listening, speaking, reading and writing that are thought in
English. Speaking skill is the skill of human to speak, such as deliver the message by using
the speech organ or expressing something. There are many of the way to increase the
speaking skill such as use role-play, drama, debate, speech contest, etc. (Mead, Nancy A. and
Rubin, Donald L:1985)
According to Yorkey (1990) Speaking is very important part in studying English.
People need to speak in order to communicate each other and make a good communication”.
Because of speaking is the important skill, Indonesian government states that English
becomes the first foreign language in the country. Therefore, English is taught as a
compulsory subject for the students in Junior High School up to University.
English for junior high school based on KTSP curriculum has purpose to construct and
to communicate language both oral and written in order to face technology development in
global era. The basic competence of speaking in KTSP curriculum is to express meaning in
spoken even formal or informal form in the interpersonal and transactional text on the
106 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 107 recount, narrative, procedure, descriptive, news item, report, analytical exposition, hortatory
exposition, spoof, explanation, discussion, and review text in the daily context.
This research is conducted in SMP N 2 Grogol, one of the state’s senior high school in
Grogol. Based on the observation and interview that was done in pre-research found that SMP
N 2 Grogol is the favorite government senior high school in Grogol. It could be seen from
registrants that increase continually since born until now and the registrants number always
over from the quota. From the facilities, this school has well facilities that support teaching
and learning process.
Based on the observation and interview that was done in pre-research; found that the
students’ speaking skill was low. This could be observed in the speaking class. The students’
motivation to follow speaking class activity was low. The students were not enthusiastic and
interested in learning English. Moreover, the students look like sleepy and bored during the
lesson. Most of student afraid to speak up in the class. They found the difficulties in
pronounce the words. The students also tended to be passive during the teaching and learning
process. On the other hand, that students’ speaking skill was low, it can be seen from the rate
score of the speaking test. The students’ mean score was 4.59 for the second grade. The
standard score in SMP N 2 Grogol is 70 for this year. The students in the first grade until third
grade of SMP N 2 Grogol have the same problem about speaking, so that the writer decided to
conduct the research in order to improve students speaking skill.
Technology is important and interesting for people around the world, more over
teenagers who always spent their time used technology in global era. From the researcher’s
observation, the method and the technique that used by the teacher cannot be accepted by the
students in the class. Based on Brown (in Fauziati, 2010: 45), in curriculum practice, a
distinction has been drawn between the activities which focus on products and process.
Whereas speaking, a product oriented approach focuses on the end result of the learning
process that is what the learner is expected to be able to do as a fluent and competence user of
language.
Storytelling technique has been known as one of teaching activities in second or foreign
language classes. One of the reasons is because it relies so much on words, offering a major
and constant source of language experience for children (Wright, 1995 in Xu, 2007). In
addition, stories themselves can be considered language treasures to use as models of
language for students of different levels and ages.
Kalmback (1986) in Stoicovy (2004) states that retelling is a process of rememorizing
what we listened to and read. Further, Stoicovy states that in relation to language teaching,
retelling technique can be used as a way to promote students’ comprehension and
understanding of discourse.
Stoicovy (2004) also points out that based on several studies, retelling has positive
influence in language learning as it improving students’ skill in rearranging information from
the text that they have read. In addition, Brown & Cambourne (1987) mention that during the
retelling process students apply and develop their language knowledge through the
internalization of the texts’ features.
Retelling helps teachers identify the level of students’ comprehension of what they
listen to or read. In addition retelling is a common way that many people use as part of their
communication. To overcome the difficulty in using the target language, telling stories is one
of the recommended techniques which can help language learners in improving his
knowledge of vocabulary, grammatical structures, and pronunciation. Moreover stories
provide various topics for learners to begin a conversation with others (Deacon and Murphey,
2001).
108 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Based on the arguments for the positive influence of retelling in language learning, we
decided to see the influence of retelling of students’ speaking skill by conducting this
research.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
1.
Speaking Skill
Any language can be acquired if one develops four basic skills in that language i.e.
listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Listening and speaking are interactive processes that
directly affect each other. Speaking is an expressive language skill in which the speaker uses
verbal symbols to communicate, while listening is a receptive language skill, which involves
the interpretation of those symbols into meaning. Writing is also expressive language skill in
which the writer uses written symbols to communicate, while reading is a receptive language
skill which involves the interpretation of those symbols into meaning.
Brown (2004: 140) defines speaking as a productive skill that can be directly and
empirically observed those observations are invariably colored by the accuracy and
effectiveness of a test-takers listening skill, which necessarily compromises the reliability and
validity of an oral production test. From those statements above, the writer can conclude that
speaking is an activity involving two or more people in which the participants are both the
listeners and the speakers having to act what they listen and make their contribution at high
speed. To most people, mastering the art of speaking is the most important aspect of learning
a second or foreign language, and success is measured in terms of the ability to carry out a
conversation in the language.
Moreover, Nunan (1998: 26) states that speaking is a process consisting of short, often
fragmentary utterance in range of pronunciation. Correct pronunciation delivers the correct
message for the listeners. The pronunciation should be supported by the proper stress and
intonation. In other hand, Mead and Rubin (1985) say that speaking is an interactive process
in which an individual alternately takes the roles of speaker and listener, and which includes
both verbal and nonverbal component.
Based on the definitions above, it can be concluded that speaking is a creative process
which deserves attention in what the speaker’s saying in range of pronunciation including
stress and intonation.
2.
Retelling
Kalmback (1986) in Stoicovy (2004) states that retelling is a process of re-memorizing
what we listened to and read. Further, Stoicovy states that in relation to language teaching,
retelling technique can be used as a way to promote students’ comprehension and
understanding of discourse. Stoicovy (2004) also points out that based on several studies,
retelling technique has positive influence in language learning as it promotes students’ ability
in rearranging information from the text that they have read.
3.
Narrative Text
Narrative is one of the genres taught in junior high school. This genre is presented to
develop the four skills of language, listening, speaking, reading and writing. In this study, the
text was used to develop students‟ speaking competence. The purpose of the text is to amuse
people.
To facilitate students to gain spoken narrative text competence, a teacher has to
introduce the structure of a narrative text first before asking them to express their ideas,
imagination and creativity. The structure of narrative text consists of a beginning
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 109 (orientation), middle (complication and series of events), ending (resolution) and a
reorientation (optional).
A narrative text is constructed not only by following a particular structure but also
language features. Derewianka (1995) states the language features of the text as follows: (1)
Specific, often individual participants with defined identities. Major participants are human,
or sometimes animals with human characteristic. (2) Mainly action verbs [material processes],
but also many verbs which refer to what the human participants said, or felt, or thought
[verbal and mental processes]. (3) Normally past tense. (4) Many linking words to do with
time. (5) Dialogue often included, during which the tense may change to the present or future.
(6) Descriptive language chosen to enhance and develop the story by creating images in the
reader’s mind. (7) Can be written in the first person (I,we) or third person (he,she,and they).
4.
Media
Various media like story books, cassette, films, the Internets and others can be
employed for teaching narrative texts to develop students’ language skills. In this study, the
media chosen to meet the purposes are animated films. Harmer (2002) states the advantages
of films/video as teaching media as follows: (1) seeing language – in use: one of the main
advantages of video is that students do not just hear language, they see it too. This greatly aids
comprehension, since for example, general meaning and moods are often conveyed through
expression, gesture and other visual clues. Thus, we can observe how intonation can match
facial expression. All such paralinguistic features give valuable meaning clues and help
viewers to see beyond what they are listening to, and thus interpret the text more deeply. (2)
Cross-cultural awareness: video uniquely allows students a look at situations far beyond their
classrooms. This is especially useful if they want to see, for example, typical British, body
language when inviting someone out, or how Americans speak to waiters. Video is also of
great value in giving students a chance to see such things as what kinds of food people eat in
other countries, and what they wear.
Films are not only useful to introduce a foreign language to students but also to provide
them with valuable cultural information. The introduction of both the language and the culture
where the language is applied can be meaningful experience for students for later use in real
interaction in global society outside the classroom.
5.
The Retelling Technique in Class
There many techniques to improving students’ speaking skill. We used retelling
technique using movie to improve students’ speaking skill of students VIII A of SMP N 2
Grogol on this study. It can do by helping student mind concept about the theory bellow:
1)
Explain that the purpose of retelling is to recreate, as close as possible to the
original, something that has been read (or heard, or viewed). Remind students
how they engage in retelling when they talk about a favorite book, movie, or
event.
2)
Model a retelling with a short selection. If the selection is familiar to the students,
they will be able to make comparisons between the original and retold version.
3)
After the retelling, discuss what they heard. Talk about and list the elements of a
retelling. Record these on chalkboard, chart, or overhead.
4)
Guide students in a retelling by providing them with a short selection to read.
After reading, have them prepare for their retelling by referring to the recorded
information. Students can be paired for practice. The listener cues in to the
recorded elements that were listed. The listener then provides the re-teller with
feedback. Students then switch roles.

The Research Design
This research is classroom research with two cycles. Classroom research is a form of
self-reflective enquires undertaken by participants. The participants are teachers and students.
The purpose of the classroom action research is to provide educational practitioners with new
knowledge and understanding, enabling to improve educational practice or resolves
significant problems in classroom. When there is no improvement after giving the treatment,
the teacher can give more treatments until the teacher sees a good improvement. Action
research has been developed by Kemmist and McTaggart (in Burns, 2010:7-9), action
research typically involves four broad phases in a cycle of reseach, and they are; (1) Planning,
we prepare everything related to the action that will be implemented, like: making lesson plan
and designing the step in doing action, preparing materials, preparing sheet for classroom
observation to know the situation of teaching and learning when the method is applied,
preparing teaching aids, preparing test (2) Action, we implemented the teaching and learning
speaking through retelling technique using movie. The research was done in two cycles.
Every cycle have three meetings. (3) Observing, This phase involves the researcher and the
collaborator were observing systematically the effects of the action and documenting the
context, actions and opinions of those involved. (4) Reflecting, in this phase, the researcher
who helped by the collaborator reflect on, evaluate and describe the effect of the action in
order to make sense of what has happened and to understand the issue that researcher has
explored more clearly. The researcher also made an evaluation based on what she has
observed to find the weakness of the teaching activity having been carried out. The evaluation
is the basic consideration to conduct next teaching. Based on the weakness found in the
reflecting process, the teacher revises the action plan for the next cycle.

The Specific Objective of the Research
The specific objective of this research is to find out whether or not the
retellingtechnique can improve the VIII A students of SMP N 2 Grogol score in speaking
after being taught using retelling technique.
3.
The Location and Time of the Research
The research was conducted at SMP N 2 Grogol, Sukoharjo in academic year
2013/2014. The school is located at Dukuh Mantung, Sanggrahan, Grogol, Sukoharjo. We
conducted the research in VIII A class of SMP N 2 Grogol is started on 1 October, 2013.
During research we adjusted the research schedule with the English lesson schedule of this
school.
4.
The Subject of the Research
The subject of the research is the first grade students of SMP N 2 Grogol class VIII A
that consist of 32 students. There are 16 boys and 16 girls. This class has various
characteristic of the students. Actually, the students of SMP N 2 Grogol have average
achievement of English. In fact, the students in this class have many difficulties in listening,
reading and especially in speaking. It can be seen from the score of daily test. Almost of
students of VIII A get score under standard in speaking test. They afraid to speak and during
teaching learning they did not give participate in class. When they asked to come in front of
class they rejected, despite they accept they cannot speak anything. On the other hand, the
students didn’t enjoy and comfort to follow speaking class. Because there are not other media
except book, so they have less attention to their teacher and the English material.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 111 5.
The Technique of Collecting Data
To collect the data, we provided the subjects a short narrative movie to re-tell. Firstly
the students watched the short movie twice. Then, they had a few minutes to write down what
the story on their own words. After, they practice to retell in paired so that they can remember
their story. The next phase, every students retelling in front of the class randomly.While
retelling, each students’ performance was recorded. This recording was then investigates and
analyzed to students’ out the speaking fluency and the students’ accuracy. The last step was to
ask testimony and interview to all of the students to discover the use of speaking strategies in
the retelling process.
We gave a total of two kind movies when we conducted the treatments.The procedure
of retelling in the treatment period was similar to that in the pre-test and the post-test. The
data were analyzed by calculating the mean scores of the pre-test and the post-test. After the
result was obtained, we used a test of correlation. It was used to find out whether the retelling
technique affected the students’ speaking fluency significantly.Two raters did the scoring of
the tests in order to achieve interater reliability.Moreover, the data from the interview and
testimony were also analyzed to know the respond of the students toward speaking strategies
applied during the process of retelling the story.
6.
Data Scoring
Scoring data is done by giving a score to each student’s performance retelling about
narrative story. The purpose of scoring data is to know the students’ development in narrative
text before and after treatment given by the researcher. The following criteria of scoring
speaking skill of oral test based on Penny Ur (1996) as follows:
Accuracy
- Little or no language produces.
- All mistake in pronunciation as it
cannot be understood.
- Poor vocabulary which makes it
quite difficulties to understand the
sentence, misused of words.
- Mistakes in basic grammar many

In this part, the findings found in each cycle will be presented.
a.
Pre Cycle
This cycle was conducted before the research. A test was conducted to know the
students’speaking skill. The scoring was done using the speaking scoring rubric with the
assessment of accuracy and fluency aspects. The table below shows the results of the
speaking test in the pre cycle.

Based on the data presented through the table above, it is found that two average
scores still far from passing grades. These facts show that students’ competence of the
two aspects is still low. Another fact shown through the table is that the average score
for speaking did not gain the passing grade, either. The speaking average score is 4,47,
while the passing grade is 3.00.
The facts described previously motivated me as an English teacher to facilitate the
students to gain better competence. To realize this, I applied retelling technique through
movie.
b.
First Cycle
Having found students’ weaknesses, I conducted the research by retelling
technique during the action in the classroom. The results of the research in the first
cycle are presented as follows.
According to the data, it is found that 2 average scores almost gain the passing
grades. The mean score of accuracy is 2.94, while the passing grade is 3.00. There are
15 (58%) students gaining the passing grade, while 11 (42%) students failed. The
average score of post test I is 5.91, while the passing grade is 5.0. There are 20(77%)
students could gain the passing grade, while 6 (23%) students failed. Again, students
still found problems in applying correct grammar in presenting the spoken narrative
text. This influenced their speaking skill.

We arrange the data into a table which shows the number. This is to show whether the
retelling techniques given during the treatment gave a significant effect to the participants’
speaking skill.
Table 2 contains amount of the students’ speaking score in the pre-test. It shows that
almost 26% of the students were good at retelling the story. This was proven by the speaking

From the scores of the pre- and post-test I, we conducted a post-test II to see whether
significant difference exists in this study. We came up with the final conclusion that the
retelling technique given during the treatment period had a significant effect on the students’
speaking skill.
Some aspects in speaking will be discussed in accordance with the students’ progress in
retelling the story. The first criterion is accuracy. In the pre-test, for example, the sixth
participant misunderstood the story. Instead of saying “He was not very happy”, she said “He
was very happy”. This was fatal, for it changed the content of the story. However, the
implementation of retelling technique could reduce the mistake. This was apparent in the
transcript of the post test done by the first voluntary students came in front of the class. In the
pre-test, the students could only deal with less than 24% of the whole story, whereas, in the
post-test, he was able to finish the story.
Fluency is also of importance. This aspect became a consideration when the
participants’ speaking fluency was assessed. The increase on vocabulary can be seen clearly
as all participants showed good progress in retelling the story. Some participants have
successfully applied words different from the original text but had similar implied meanings.
Generally, the strategies used by the students in retelling a story began with rewriting the text
by deleting some unknown words, then memorizing it. When they had trouble recalling the
words in their draft, they tried to continue the story in some ways: by skipping the forgotten
words, or trying to speak in a halting manner. We argue that what they have implemented is
part of strategic competence that they use to negotiate the content of the story. This is in line
with the definition of strategic competence as the ability to use strategies such as
paraphrasing, repetition, avoidance of the unfamiliar words or terms, and word guessing
(Savignon, 1997).
From the abovementioned discussion, we come up with a conclusion that the research
subjects or the participants have applied various strategies in the retelling process and those
strategies are able to help them speak fluently.
E.
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
Based on the research findings, we draw some conclusions as follows. Retelling is
considered a technique which can be applied to improve students’ speaking skill. This is
indicated a number of statistical data, First, all of the participants produced higher scores in
the post-test than those in the pre-test. Second, before the participants used the technique of
retelling, the mean score was 4.47, and after the treatment was given to the participants, the
mean score was 5.91. Third, the second post test score was 7.07. This score was higher than
the pre-test and first post test. This shows that the treatment given to the students of eighth
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 115 grade in SMP N Grogol affects their speaking skill significantly. In addition, the study
revealed some findings regarding theVIII A students’ retelling.Before applied retelling
technique the students were passive in class. Second the students did not have motivation to
join in class. The third the students have difficulty to express their idea through speaking
because the students lack vocabularies. The last most of students lack confidence.After we
conducted the research we found the improvement at first the students made some notes in
which there were a list of words, phrases, or simple sentences used as a speaking guide. It
impacts the student brave and confident to speak up. Secondly, the students can increase their
vocabulary through implementing retelling technique. In accordance with the previous
conclusions, we suggest some points for the improvement of speaking skill of VIII A
students. First, the English teacheris expected to implement the retelling technique more often
than usual in order to develop students’ speaking skill. Second, the students themselves need
to actively collect short stories to retell in or out-side the class. This is advised to be done in
pairs or groups. The last suggestion is for researchers to carry out further research that may
study the aspect of techniques or methods on students’ speaking skill. Further studies should
involve a bigger number of research subjects, be carried out in a longer time frame and
consider the length of the text as well as the proficiency level in order that the more valid and
the general findings can be gained.

ABSTRACT
This research aims at developing Supplementary English Material to fulfill the students’
need toward the material at vocational high school using Project-based Learning (PBL). It
was conducted to investigate (1) the quality of the existing course book used in vocational
high school, (2) the development of the Supplementary Project book in SMK Citra Semesta
Indonesia Yogyakarta.
This research was categorized into Research and Development (R & D). It was
conducted in two steps, they were exploration and development. The exploration step
revealed: (1) the description of the existing course book used in vocational high school and
(2) the need analysis of the ESP learning material. While the development step explained: (1)
the description of the draft of supplementary project book, (2) the result of the trial of the
draft, and (3) the final draft of supplementary project book.
The data in the exploration stage were collected through conducting document analysis,
observation, questionnaire, and having interview. It was carried out to reveal the quality of
existing course book used at vocational high school and the learner’s need toward material.
The findings show that the course book used at the vocational high school students contains
general English material and it is less specific to be used for the students of nursing skill
program. Hence, the findings imply the supplementary project book was needed to be
developed by considering the need of the teacher and the students. The supplementary project
book was developed by considering some aspects. It contains theoretical theories of ESP and
PBL. Then, it was validated and reviewed by some experts on English language teaching and
implemented in class. Through conducting observation, distributing questionnaire, and having
focus group discussion that involved the researcher, the teacher, the expert, and students, the
draft was revised to be the final draft of supplementary project book. Therefore, after going
through the stages, it could be said that the draft is feasible to be applied as supplementary
material to teach students of nursing skill program in vocational high school. It is expected
that the book can give some contribution and improvement for English teaching and learning.
Keywords: ESP, R&D, PBL, Supplementary, Vocational School

INTRODUCTION In Indonesia, there are several medical schools and colleges which treat their students
become a professional nursing. In this research, the researcher focuses on the senior high
school level especially in vocational high school which learns English as specific purposes.
116 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 117 Medical Department is one of the departments in Vocational School. The department also
prepares the learners to compete in medical services especially in nursing field. Medical
Department focuses in preparing the students to have abilities in science and art. To support
their abilities, the students need English language learning especially English nursing skill
program. The English nursing skill program is really important for the students. Actually,
there are some components which influence teaching and learning process. One of the
components is learning materials.
The aim of vocational school is providing the students for the work area. For that
reason, students of vocational schools need English for Specific Purposes (ESP) to provide
the next step for getting the job. In practice, there are variants of English use, depending on
the specific purposes. This specification of English use will help learners to master English as
well as what they need in term of specific purpose that they have. English is one of the
compulsory subjects that have to be taught for vocational high school. As stated in the Rule of
Minister of National Education No. 22 year 2006, English is an adaptive lesson which is
aimed at preparing the students with English communication material context which is needed
for their skill program in written or spoken form. Consequently, the teachers should plan,
conduct, and manage the learning of English in order to meet their specific needs. SMK Citra
Semesta Indonesia Yogyakarta is one of the vocational high schools in Yogyakarta that
focuses on medical subjects which have two major programs, pharmacy and nursing. Nursing
skill program become the last choice by the students after they are not accepted in the
pharmacy program, despite the input of nursing skill program is higher than the pharmacy
program.
Recently, there are many English course books for the students of vocational high
schools. Some books that are often used by English teacher are Global Access, English for
Vocational High School, Interchange, and Get Along. Each of them promotes different
approach and also interesting topic and display. Although there are many course books
published with different kinds of approach offered, language practitioners should choose the
best and standard books based on the students’ need. According to Cunningsworth (1995: 1517) there are several guidelines for standardize course books used in the classroom. First,
course books should correspond to learners’ needs. They should match the aims and
objectives of the language-learning programme. Second, course books should reflect the uses
(present or future) which learners will make of the language. Select course books which will
help to equip students to use language effectively for their own purposes. Third, course books
should take account of students’ needs as learners and should facilitate their learning
processes, without dogmatically imposing a rigid method. Fourth, course books should have a
clear role as a support for learning. Like teachers, they mediate between the target language
and the learner.
By doing the observation and informal talk with the English teacher, it was found that in
this school only used one book which designed by LP2IP Yogyakarta for all skill programs.
The book is “English for Vocational Schools” which has three levels; novice, elementary, and
intermediate. The novice level was designed for first grade, elementary level for second
grade, and intermediate level for third grade. This book has a series, book A and B for every
level. Each series designed for one semester. But the teacher only used one series (book A) in
all classes, included nursing class, because every book has many materials which should be
learn, but the students cannot reach them all in two semesters. Based on analysis on this book,
it is found that the input text and language context has not matched with the nursing skill
program, the content used English in general topics and the language are very high for the
students’ level of English in grade X of English for nursing class in SMK Citra Semesta
Indonesia Yogyakarta. The teacher finds some difficulties in using the book, so they make
focus learning material and drilling vocabulary in the first meeting. It becomes the reason why
118 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 the students of nursing skill program, especially in English for nursing class need additional
specific English learning material in more simple content which can guide the students to
improve their English.
THEORETICAL REVIEW
There are three major theories which used to construct and analyse the research finding,
such as English for Specific Purposes (ESP), Project-based Learning (PBL), and Material
Development.
2.
a.
English for Specific Purposes (ESP)
Teaching ESP is aimed at developing students’ skills of professional communication in
English depending on the area of their professional field. It means that such teaching should
be connected to students’ particular specialization. Therefore, English for specific purpose
includes specialized programs which are designed to develop the communicative use of
English in a specialized field of science, work, or technology. Hutchinson and Waters (1987:
8-9) defined that ESP is an approach to language learning which is based on learner‘s need
which means that all contents and methods are based on the needs of the students. In
addition, Hutchinson and Waters (1987: 25) proposed that there are two basic needs of ESP
students: target needs and learning needs. Target needs can be perceived by necessities, lacks,
and wants. Necessities are the types of need determined by the target situation, that is, what
needs they have to know in order to function effectively in the target situation. In contrast,
lacks are the gaps between what the learner already knows and the necessities. If necessities
are the standards to be achieved by the learners and lacks are the gaps between what they have
to achieve and what they do not have, hence, wants are the goals that the learners are going to
themselves. If Hutchinson and Waters (1987: 26) defined lacks asthe starting point,
necessities as the destination, and wants as what the destination should be, they consider
learning needs as the route to get these three to complete each other. If target needs can be
seen by analyzing the target situation, hence, learning needs must be seen in the process of
learning.
b.
Project-based Learning (PBL)
Project-based Learning is a comprehensive instructional approach to engage students in
sustained, cooperative investigation (Branford & Stein, 1993: 1). Within its framework
students collaborate, working together to make sense of what is going on. Students pursue
solutions to non trivial problems by: (1) asking and refining questions; (2) debating ideas; (3)
making predictions; (4) designing plans and/or experiments; (5) collecting and analyzing data;
(6) drawing conclusions; (7) communicating their ideas and finding to others; (8) asking new
questions; and (9) creating artifacts (Blumenfeld et al., in Branford & Stein, 1993: 2).In this
research, the researcher will use Problem-based Learning in developing English materials for
second grade students of English Nursing skill program in Medical Department SMK Citra
Semesta Indonesia Yogyakarta. Using PBL approach will help the students to improve their
English as preparation skill in their future occupation.
c.
Material Development
Learning material is one of the important factors in most language programs.In
practice, it focused on evaluation, adaptation of published materials and creation
(development of teaching materials by teacher in line with the existing syllabus). According
to Richard (2001: 252) says that materials are anything that serves primarily to supplement
the teacher’s instruction. The aids used by the teachers and students supporting the teaching
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 119 learning process called as the materials.Material development is about making preparation of
effective teaching materials which is similar to the processes involved in planning and
teaching the lesson and it is aimed to design and create materials which can be reference and
resource for effecting learning (Richard: 2001; 262). While Nunan (1989: 208) defined
material development as a process of procedures cover selecting, adapting, and creating of
teaching materials. Tomlinson (1998: 85) insists that materials development refers to anything
which is done by writers, teachers or learners to provide sources of language input and to
make use of those sources in ways which maximize the likelihood of intake: in other words
the supplying information about and/or experience of the language in ways designed to
promote language learning.
3.
RESEARCH METHOD
Research methodology consists of two parts, namely research design and research
procedure. The research procedure explains the detailed procedure in exploration stage and
developing stage.
a.
Research Design
The topic of this research is Developing Supplementary English Material based on
Project-based Learning for Nursing Student of Medical Department of SMK Citra Semesta
Indonesia Yogyakarta. Gall and Borg (2003: 569) stated that R&D is an industy-based
development model in which they are systematically field tested, evaluated, and refined until
they met specified criteria of effectiveness, quality, or similar standards. In line with this,
Sugiyono (2013: 297) states that research and development (R & D) is a research method used
to produce a product and examine the effectiveness of the product. It is aimed to help teachers
and students to get the best educational product.
From the description, it can be seen that there are some stages in the research that
should be done by the researcher, namely designing, field testing, evaluating, and refining.
Based on the aim of this study, this study is classified as a Research and Development (R &
D). The aim of this research is to develop an instructional project book which guides the
students to make some individual or group projects using Project-based Learning approach in
medical school. In this research, the product is developed by considering to the strengths and
weaknesses of existing learning material or textbooks and some related theories in order to
produce an appropriate material based on vocational school context. In developing it, the use
of Project-based Learning and English for Specific Purposes will be explored much more.
There are two stages in this research, namely exploration and development. Each stage has
different steps and purposes.
b.
Research Procedure
The aim of educational research and development in this study is validated, field-tested
and evaluated and refined the educational products in supporting teaching and learning
process. Within this research, there will be a process to develop and validate products as
stated in Borg and Gall (1983: 772). The steps of this process are usually referred to as the
R&D cycle. In order to create the effective products, some experts provide the models in
some cycles.
Such simplification is termed by Borg and Gall (1983: 792). They state that for thesis
and dissertation, it is best to undertake a small-scale project and to limit development to just
few steps of the R&D cycle. It means that the implementation can be adjusted based on the
condition. Because all of steps need more time in conducting the research and also the cost of
capital in producing the product, the researcher uses the small-scale R&D proposed by Borg
120 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 and Gall. In the small-scale, the steps of R&D are divided in two big stages namely
exploration and developing stages. The data in the exploration stage will be collected through
conducting document analysis, observation, questionnaire, and having interview.
4.
RESEARCH FINDING AND DISCUSSION
This section focuses on describing the research finding on the exploration and
development stage based on the available data. In other words, it presents the solution of the
objectives written in the formulation of the problems and discussion based on related theories
to clarity the findings. The exploration stage consists of five parts of findings: (1) the
analyzing of the existing condition in this case is the description of the existing and quality of
course book, (2) the analyzing of syllabus used in nursing skill program, (3) the result of need
analysis obtained from questionnaire, interview, observation, and document analysis, (4)
product planning, (5) prototype design. The development stage consists of three parts: (1)
expert validation, (2) tryout of the product and (3) developing final product.
There are two major findings in this research, exploration stage and development stage.
Unfortunately the research is still ongoing, in this section the researcher only discuss about
the finding in exploration stage which consist of: (1) the analyzing of the existing condition in
this case is the description of the existing and quality of course book, (2) the analyzing of
syllabus used in nursing skill program, (3) the result of need analysis obtained from
questionnaire, interview, observation, and document analysis, (4) product planning, (5)
prototype design.
5.
CONCLUSION
There are many teaching components for the successful of English learning such as
method, material, media, teacher, students, etc. All of them become synergy to support each
other in the teaching learning process. Course book is one of teaching components that plays
important role to provide materials for students which can be used to achieve the goal of
English teaching and learning process in the class. Based on the research findings, the
researcher found that the course book used in SMK Citra Semesta Indonesia Yogyakarta has
not provided appropriate material needed by the vocational students especially for nursing
skills program. The English teacher uses English for Vocational Schoolby LP2IP as course
book for all skill programs in that school. After the course book was analysed based on some
guideline, it was found that the content of book contains general English material and
therefore it is not appropriate with the students’ skills program. Based on that problem, there
should be an effort to improve the quality of English teaching and learning. Therefore the
researcher developed Supplementary Project book as an additional material for first grade
students of nursing skills program at SMK Citra Semesta Indonesia Yogyakarta. It was
expected that the material can support the existing course book used at that school.

Abstrak
Wacana sebagai sebuah bentuk penggunaan bahasa atau sebuah ide dalam pemikiran tertentu,
yang dapat dijumpai di berbagai media, termasuk berita, menjadi sebuah objek penelitian
yang menarik dalam ilmu humaniora. Isu yang selalu menjadi perbincangan hangat dalam
berita ialah mengenai konflik Israel dan Palestina. New York Times, yang merupakan salah
satu media massa di Amerika, selalu aktif memberitakan konflik antara Israel dan Palestina
ini, dengan wacananya sendiri. Makalah ini berasumsi bahwa Palestina, yang merupakan
negara Islam, dan Islam yang selalu diidentikan teroris oleh Amerika khususnya, akan sangat
sulit untuk mendapat dukungan dari media Amerika, seperti New York Times. Makalah ini
berusaha menguji keberpihakan New York Times kepada Israel tersebut, dengan menggunakan
pendekatan analisis wacana kritis oleh Van Dijk. Dalam makalah ini dipilih dua berita dari
New York Times, yang pertama berjudul Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks
oleh Isabel Kershner dan yang kedua berjudul Israeli Family attacked in west Bank, and 2 are
killed oleh Diaa Hadid. Fokus dalam makalah ini hanya kepada kedua struktur teks berita
tersebut. Pada akhirnya, melalui analisis struktur makro dan mikro, yang terdiri dari unsur
topik, semantik, sintaksis, stilistik dan retoris berita, terlihat bahwa kedua artikel sangat
menyudutkan Palestina, khususnya Hamas.
Kata Kunci: Wacana, Berita, Konflik Israel-Palestina, Analisis Wacana Kritis
A.
PENDAHULUAN
Van Dijk (1997) menyebutkan bahwa wacana ialah selalu diidentifikasikan sebagai
sebuah bentuk dari pengguanan bahasa, seperti dalam sebuah pidato. Wacana dapat juga
diartikan sebuah ide dalam pemikiran di sekolah tertentu, seperti sebuah wacana filsafat
modern. Media Massa seperti radio televisi dan internet, dapat menjadi sebuah alat
penyampaian wacana, seperti gender, kelas, etnik, dan lain-lain, yang terikat pada sistem
sosial atau organisasi (Norman dalam Van dick 2007: 230). Wacana ini tentu saja akan
mempengaruhi bagaimana media tersebut menulis atau pun ”berbicara” (Vandick, 2008: 118).
Satu hal yang pasti diketahui dari sebuah berita di media masa baik cetak maupun TV
ialah adanya sebuah wacana di dalamnya (Van Dijk, 1988: 1). Van Dijk (1988) menemukan
sebuah cara baru untuk menganalisa wacana yang berada dalam sebuah berita di media ini,
yaitu dengan sebuah pendekatan struktur yang terdapat dalam berita tersebut, meliputi; bentuk
gramatikal (fonologi, morfologi, sintak, dan semantik), bentuk kata, gabungan kata, atau
kalimat, serta lebih kompleks lagi yaitu koherensi (hubungan antara kalimat), topik, skematik,
serta dimensi stilistik dan retorik.
Berita baik di media cetak maupun elektronik selalu menjadi sebuah alat untuk
menyampaikan wacana atau ideologi tertentu dalam sebuah isu yang ditampilkan dalam isi
beritanya. Salah satu isu yang yang terus berkembang dan selalu menjadi bahasan yang sangat
menarik untuk diperbincangkan di dalam media massa ialah mengenai polemik antara
122 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 123 Palestina dan Israel. Konflik yang sudah terjadi berabad-abad yang lalu sepertinya memang
terus meningkat. Berbagai isu pun berkembang didalamnya, mulai dari masalah agama
sampai ke masalah politik. Banyak media massa yang menjadikan konflik Palestina dan Israel
menjadi “makanan” dalam beritanya. Dari sekian banyak media tersebut ada beberapa yang
pro Israel dan ada juga yang pro Palestina. Salah satu media di Amerika, New York Times,
selalu aktif dalam memberikan berita Palestina-Israel ini. Salah satu penelitian oleh Viser
(2003) mengemukakan bahwa “New York Times” merupakan media yang Pro Israel. Tetapi
dalam analisisnya Viser tidak menggunakan teori Van Dijk, mealinkan sebuah pendekatan
kuantitif.
Untuk itu, dengan menggunakan analisis wacana kritis Van Dijk, makalah ini akan
membuktikan bahwa dalam berita yang diterbitkan oleh “New York Times” terdapat sebuah
dukungan terhadap pemerintah Israel. Makalah ini akan meneliti sebuah berita yang
diterbitkan oleh “New York Times” yang berjudul “Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist
Attacks” dan “Israeli Family attacked in west Bank, and 2 are killed.” Jika dibaca sekilas
sepertinya akan terlihat bahwa berita ini bersikap netral terhadap konflik palestina-Israel.
Namun jika ditelusuri lebih jauh ke dalam struktur berita dan teknik yang digunakan dalam
penyampaian berita tersebut, dengan menggunakan teori wacana Van Dijk, akan terlihat
bagaimana berita ini sangat mendukung Israel dan menyudutkan Palestina, khususnya Hamas,
serta mendiskriminasi Islam.
B.
KAJIAN PUSTAKA
Penelitian dengan menggunakan Analisis Wacana kritis Van Dijk, terhadap media,
sudah pernah dilakukan oleh Baidoun (2014) dalam tesisnya. Dalam penelitiannya, Baidoun
menggunakan beberapa artikel dari dua media Palestina yaitu Maan dan Alray, serta dua
media Israel yaitu Haaretz dan The Jerusalem Post. Hasilnya Baidoun memperlihatkan
adanya ideologi yang berbeda dari keempat media tersebut. Berbeda dengan Baidon,
penelitian ini akan berfokus kepada media online Amerika, yaitu New York Times
C.
METODE PENELITIAN
Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif, dengan pendekatan analisis wacana kritis
oleh Van Dijk. Analisis Wacana kritis ialah sebuah penelitian analisis wacana yang melihat
bagaimana penyalahgunaan kekuasaan dan “pembedaan” dibuat, direproduksi, dilegitimasi
dan ditentang oleh teks dalam konteks sosial maupun politik. Analisis wacana kritis sangat
berguna untuk memahami, menyingkap dan menentang pembedaan sosial tersebut (Van Dijk
dalam Tannen, 2015: 466).
Penelitian ini akan berfokus pada teks dari dua artikel berita dari New York Times: yang
pertama berjudul “Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks” oleh Isabel Kershner
dan yang kedua berjudul “Israeli Family attacked in west Bank, and 2 are killed” oleh Diaa
Hadid. Penelitian ini akan memperlihatkan bagaimana prasangka New York Times terhadap
Palestina, Hamas dan Islam, serta keberpihakan New York Times terhadap Israel.

HASIL PENELITIAN DAN PEMBAHASAN
Analisis Struktur Makro
Headline atau lead sebuah berita dapat mengekspresikan topik utama sebuah berita,
yang disebut oleh vanDijk dengan semantic macrostrusture (Van Dijk dalam Tannen, 2015:
473). Headline atau lead, yang menggambarkan wacana umum berita, menjadi bagian yang
124 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 sangat penting karena akan sangat diingat oleh pembaca (VanDijk, 1993: 248). Dalam artikel
yang berjudul “Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks”, tema umumnya ialah
informasi bahwa Hamas akan melakukan gerakan teror untuk melawan Israel. Topik ini,
dengan menggunakan kerangka Van Dijk, dalam teks didukung oleh beberapa subtopik,
misalnya dalam artikel ini diberitakan bahwa Hamas merencanakan sebuah gerakan bunuh
diri di Tel Afiv. Hal ini didapat dari hasil interograsi seorang tahanan. Sub topik lainnya ialah
bahwa Hamas telah memulai serangan bunuh diri sejak tahun 1990an. Ada sebuah mobil yang
meledak di Qalqiya yang sebenarnya merupakan sebuah serangan ke Tel Aviv.
Dalam artikel berjudul Israeli Family Attacked in West Bank, and 2 Are Killed, topik
utamanya ialah adanya serangan terhadap warga Israel yang mengakibatkan dua orang, ayah
dan anak, terbunuh. Sub topik dalam berita ini ialah dugaan bahwa penyerangan dilakukan
oleh orang Palestina. Sub topik lainnya ialah bahwa penyerangan serupa pernah terjadi dan
juga mengakibatkan beberapa warga Israel terbunuh.
2.
Analisis Superstruktur
Topik berita diatur oleh skema berita yang juga disebut superstruktur (van Dijk: 1993).
Skema ini terdiri dari headline dan lead, kejadian utama, latar, reaksi verbal dan juga
komentar(van Dijk: 1993). Dalam artikel “Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks
(Israel mengatakan Hamas telah merencanakan serangan Teroris)”, jika dilihat dari judul
berita terlihat bahwa berita ini mencoba untuk bersikap netral dengan menggunakan kalimat
“Israel says”, karena jika berita ini langsung membuat kalimat “Hamas Was Plotting
Terrorist Attacks”, maka akan terlihat secara langsung bahwa berita ini menyudutkan Hamas.
Dengan menggunakan kalimat majemuk dalam judul “Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting
Terrorist Attacks” maka interpretasi pembaca berita dapat bermacam-macam, salah satunya
ialah kenetralan dari judul ini yaitu tidak memihak Israel maupaun Hamas. Namun, jika
dilihat secara keseluruhan dari isi berita dengan menggunakan analisis Van Dijk maka akan
terlihat keberpihakan dari berita ini yang lebih mendukung Israel dan sangat menyudutkan
Hamas.
Yang pertama ialah dapat dilihat dari lead yang digunakan dalam berita ini;
“JERUSALEM, April 10 — Recent interrogations of arrested members
of Hamas in the West Bank town of Qalqilya produced information that the
Islamic organization there was planning imminent terrorist attacks against Israel,
including one using a large truck bomb, the Israeli Shin Bet internal security
service said Tuesday.”
Dari lead ini dapat terlihat bahwa wartawan langsung menyerang Hamas dengan
mengungkapan bahwa ada seorang anggota Hamas yang ditangkap “arrested members
of Hamas. Penggunaan lead ini dalam sebuah berita akan langsung mencitrakan Hamas yang
buruk. Selain itu, penggunaan kata “Islamic organization” dan “planning imminent terrorist
attacks” juga sepertinya ingin mengaitkan isu ini dengan Islam sebagai penyebar teror.
Dalam artikel “New York Times” oleh Kreshner ini, ada beberapa komentar tokoh
seperti;
“In the wake of the Shin Bet statement, David Baker, an official in the office of
Israel’s prime minister, Ehud Olmert, said Hamas “continues to target Israeli
civilians.” ...“Terrorism is a cornerstone of the new Palestinian government, a
government that should be shunned,” he said.”
Dengan memasukan komentar ini, wartawan sepertinya ingin menarik simpati pembaca, yang
mana komentar dari perdana menteri Israel ini menyebutkan bahwa Hamas melanjutkan
menjadikan penduduk Israel sebagai target. Dan juga artikel ini menyebutkan adanya
pemerintahan baru Palestina sebagai teroris. Komentar tokoh ini juga terlihat sangat
menyudutkan pemerintahan Palestina. Dan dari kesimpulan wartawan, dari komentar ini, yang
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 125 menyatakan bahwa ada sekelompok garis keras Hamas yang terus bergerak dalam aksi teror
sepertinya justru menyalahkan pemerintahan Hamas yang membiarkan aksi ini terjadi dan
secara tidak langsung wartawan juga ingin menyatakan bahwa Hamas bertanggung jawab atas
aliran keras tersebut.
Dalam artikel berita lainnya yang berjudul “Israeli Family Attacked in West Bank, and 2
Are Killed,” terlihat adanya penggunaan kalimat pasif. Kemungkinan ada beberapa alasan
penggunaan kalimat pasif ini. Pertama ialah pelaku dari tindakan penyerangan yang tidak
diketahui. Kedua ialah berita ini ingin menekankan apa yang terjadi dengan subjek, yakni
keluarga Israel yang terbunuh. Begitu pun yang dilakukan dalam lead berita tersebut; An
Israeli father and son were killed and five other members of their family were wounded in a
drive-by shooting near a Jewish settlement in the occupied West Bank on Friday. Sampai di
sini berita ini terus menekankan keluarga Israel sebagai “korban”. Yang menjadi masalah
ialah bagaimana artikel ini memasukan pendapat pihak berwenang Israel yang menduga
bahwa pelaku penyerangan ialah orang palestina: “who they believed were Palestinian”.
Pembuatan kalimat majemuk ini jelas merupakan penambahan informasi wartawan, yang
pada akhirnya “menuduh” orang palestina sebagai pelaku penyerangan.
3.
Analsis Struktur Mikro
Van Dijk (2014: 80) menyatakan bahwa:
“There are potentially a very large number of discourse structures that could be
manipulated in experiments: phonological and visual (oral vs. written, picture, etc.)
structures, syntactic structures (e.g., word order, sentence complexity, active vs. passive
sentences, pronouns), lexicon (easier or more dificult words), propositional structures
of meaning, semantic relations between propositions, implicitness vs. explicitness,
presuppositions, foregrounding and backgrounding, degree of detail (granularity),
types of person, event and action description, levels of description (general vs. specific),
conventional schemas (e.g., narrative, argumentative), rhetorical structures
(hyperboles, euphemisms), style and register, speech acts, conversational strategies,
and so on.”
Dari kutipan di atas dapat terlihat bahwa struktur mikro dapat terdiri dari aspek semantik
(berhubungan makna, implisit atau eksplisit), sintaksis (bentuk kalimat, seperti aktif atau
pasif), stilistik (penggunaan kata) dan retoris (seperti hiperbola, metafora).
Dalam artikel berita yang berjudul “Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks”,
melalui latar yang ditampilkan dalam berita oleh wartawan, akan terlihat bahwa wartawan
ingin membawa pandangan pembaca menuju kepada Israel sebagai korban teror dan Hamas
sebagai pelaku Teror. Latar yang diberikan dalam berita ini ialah bahwa memang ada
informasi dari seorang tahanan yang merupakan anggota Hamas bahwa Hamas akan
melakukan serangan teror terhadap Israel termasuk diantaranya ialah dengan menggunakan
truk yang berisi bom. Hal ini diperoleh dari badan intelejen Israel. Latar yang digunakan oleh
wartawan ini sepertinya sangat mendukung pemerintah Israel, yang sepertinya menjadi
korban dari gerakan teror Hamas. Wartawan sepertinya ingin mengajak pembaca untuk
mempercayai informasi yang didapatkan oleh pemerintah Israel yang bersumber langsung
dari seorang tahanan yang merupakan anggota hamas. Secara tidak langsung Latar ini juga
sangat menyudutkan Hamas. Dengan menyebutkan bahwa organisasi Hamas merupakan
organisasi Islam, Latar ini juga sangat memarjinalisasi Islam, di mana organisasi Hamas yang
merupakan organisasi Islam diartikan sebagai organisasi Teroris. Penyudutan terhadap Hamas
juga dipertegas dengan Latar lainnya yaitu yang menyebutkan bahwa Hamas ialah pendukung
di baris depan terhadap bom bunuh diri Palestina di Israel sejak tahun 1990an. Latar waktu ini
sepertinya menunjukan penyudutan terhadap Hamas yang dianggap bertanggung jawab atas
semua peristiwa bom bunuh diri di Israel.
126 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Berikutnya dari cara wartawan menampilkan detail dalam berita ini sepertinya juga
terlihat dukungannya terhadap Israel dan penyudutannnya terhadap Hamas. Detail-detail yang
akan menumbuhkan simpati terhadap Israel dan menunjukan dukungan wartawan terhadap
Israel selalu dibuat secara lengkap dan panjang lebar. Sebagai contoh;
“According to a rare public statement by Shin Bet, its agents found out about
what they said were plans for suicide attacks from Qalqilya after interrogating
detainees and learning of the truck bomb. Shin Bet said it was told that a wouldbe suicide bomber had driven a truck packed with about 220 pounds of explosives
to the Tel Aviv area in March, but for unspecified reasons, the attack was not
carried out. The truck returned to Qalqilya, and later blew up there in what Shin
Bet termed a “work accident.”
Kalimat-kalimat yang menunjukan akan adanya serangan ke Israel yang merupakan hasil
interograsi tahanan yang merupakan anggota Hamas selalu dibuat panjang dan jelas.
Sedangkan kalimat yang merupakan pembelaan Hamas terhadap organisasinya dibuat begitu
pendek dan samar dan terselip diantara kalimat yang menyerang Hamas sebagai contoh
“Hamas has denied that such a division exists.” Kalimat begitu pendek sehingga
kemungkinan pembaca akan melewatinya.
Dalam kutipan di atas juga ada penggunaan kata ganti; tanpa menyebutkan nama
agennya siapa, wartawan langsung mengutip pendapat dari badan Intelegen Israel, Shin Bet,
bahwa agennya telah mengintrogasi tahanan dan didapatkan bahwa memang ada rencana
pemboman ke Israel. Dengan tidak diketahui nama agennya, jelas wartawan ini justru ingin
menekankan isu beritanya yaitu rencana serangan terorisme ke wilayah Israel. Dan tentu saja
berita ini sangat mendukung Israel, memperlakukan Israel sebagai korban, dan menyudutkan
Hamas sebagai “tertuduh”.
Selanjutnya, dalam kutipan di atas ada dua peranggapan yang bertingkat, yaitu terlihat
kata “said” dan frasa “it was told”. Dalam kalimat ini tidak ada subjek yang jelas yang dapat
dijadikan bahwa kalimat ini merupakan sebuah bukti atau kebenaran. Kata said mengacu
kepada subjek Shin bet yang merupakan intelegen Israel, namun siapa orang yang
mengatakannya tidak disebutkan. Kata “it was told” pun tidak didasarkan atas subjek yang
jelas. Sehingga kalimat ini merujuk terhadap sebuah peranggapan yang tidak pasti
kebenarannya. Dalam kalimat pendukungnya pun akan terlihat kerancuan yang terlihat
“dibuat-buat’. Seharusnya kalimat berita seperti ini tidak perlu disampaikan karena
kebenarannya masih harus dipertanyakan, namun sepertinya wartawan sengaja membuatnya
untuk mendukung Israel.
Contoh lain dari peranggapan juga terdapat dalam paragraf berikut:
“On March 19, the Izzedine al-Qassam Brigades, the military underground of
Hamas, claimed responsibility for the shooting and wounding of an Israeli
Electric Corporation employee who was working inside Israel near the Gaza
border fence. That was the first attack of any kind claimed by Hamas since
November.”
Dalam kalimat di atas terdapat kata yang menunjukan peranggapan yaitu “claimed”. Kata
“claimed” digunakan untuk menunjukan sesuatu yang benar, namun belum ada bukti yang
jelas atau seseorang mungkin tidak mempercayai hal tersebut. Dalam kalimat ini walaupun
kelompok militer bawah tanah hamas mengklaim bahwa mereka menembak dan melukai
pekerja Israel, namun hal ini belum terbukti kebenaranya, karena masih ada kemungkinan ada
oknum tertentu yang sengaja membuat pernyataan ini sebagai sebuah propaganda. Akan
tetapi, wartawan kembali memasukan pernyataan ini ke dalam beritanya, yang jelas
pernyataan ini akan sangat menyudutkan Hamas. Bahkan dalam kalimat “That was the first
attack of any kind claimed by Hamas since November”, wartawan sepertinya menghubungkan
antara gerakan bawah tanah Hamas dengan Hamas itu sendiri. Dengan kata lain wartawan
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 127 ingin mengatakan bahwa apa yang dilakuka oleh gerakan bawah tanah hamas adalah
merupakan tanggung jawab Hamas juga. Hal ini tentu saja sangat memarjinalisasi Hamas.
Kemudian ada juga wacana maksud di dalam berita ini, yang juga menyudutkan Hamas,
seperti yang terlihat dalam paragraf berikut:
“Israel maintains a complete boycott of the government, and has been calling on
the international community to do the same, with limited success. The United
States and Europe are maintaining contacts with the non-Hamas ministers, and a
senior British diplomat met with Prime Minister Ismail Haniya of Hamas last
week on what was described as a humanitarian mission to help secure the release
of a British journalist kidnapped in Gaza.”
Paragraf ini ialah sebuah paragraf yang dapat diartikan bahwa permerintah Amerika dan
Eropa pun memiliki masalah dengan hamas. Jadi dapat diartikan bahwa Paragraf ini
merupakan gambaran dukungan pemerintah Amerika, Inggris dan Eropa terhadap Israel.
Paragraf ini seharusnya dapat saja dibuat implisit jika kalimat “on what was described as a
humanitarian mission to help secure the release of a British journalist kidnapped in Gaza.”
Namun dengan pemberian informasi seperti ini maksud wartawan untuk mendukung Israel
dan menyudutkan Hamas menjadi lebih eksplisit dan jelas.
Dari analisis sintaksis yaitu penggunaan bentuk kalimat, koherensi dan kata ganti
memang ada yang digunakan dalam berita ini untuk menyudutkan Hamas. Sebagai contoh
dalam pengguanan bentuk kalimat terdapat kalimat aktif yang subjek atau pelakuanya ialah
Hamas seperti “A Hamas-orchestrated suicide bombing in the Park Hotel in the coastal city
of Netanya on the eve of Passover in 2002 killed 30” dalam kutipan ini kelompok Hamas
sebagai subjek, atau pelaku telah melakukan bom bunuh diri yang membunuh 30 orang. Yang
menarik ialah penggunaan kata orchestrated yang membuat seolah-olah hamas sangat
menikmati hal itu dan juga korbannya di sini tidak disebutkan dari golongan mana. Sehingga
memberi kesan bahwa tindakan Hamas sangatlah kejam dan tidak “pandang bulu” siapa
korbannya. Padahal jika ingin bersikap netral seharusnya berita ini menerangkan fakta yang
sesungguhnya.
Kemudian dalam penggunaan koherensi. Seperti dalam kalimat; “Hamas had not
changed its policy regarding attacks in Israel, but that there were “some groups in the
military wing of Hamas that don’t like the cease-fire or the unity government.” Jika memang
berita ini ingin bersikap netral atau tidak menyudutkan Hamas maka koherensi “but that there
were “some groups in the military wing of Hamas that don’t like the cease-fire or the unity
government”, seharusnya tidak perlu ditambahkan. Namun karena berita ini ingin
menjatuhkan Hamas maka disebutlah ada kelompok sayap militer Hamas yang tidak suka
dengan genjatan senjata. Dan hal ini sepertinya diutarakan dengan tujuan untuk menyudutkan
Hamas bahwa seharusnya Hamas mampu mengontrol gerakan sayap militernya untuk
mematuhinya. Secara tidak langsung Hamas jugalah yang bertanggung jawab atas bom yang
berada di Qalqiya.
Dari penggunaan Leksikon banyak kata-kata yang juga menyudutkan Hamas yaitu
penggunaan kata Terrorist yang disejajarkan dengan kata Islamic seperti dalam kutipan
berikut: “that the Islamic organization there was planning imminent terrorist attacks
against Israel”. Hamas yang merupakan organisasi Islam disejajarkan dengan organisasi
Teroris. Pernyataan ini bukan saja memarjinalisasi Hamas tetapi juga telah memarjinalisasi
Islam karena dianggap sebagai penyebar teror yang tentu saja berkonotasi negatif.
Selain itu penyudutan terhadap Islam juga terlihat dari grafis tulisan dalam artikel berita
ini, seperti “Hamas was at the vanguard of Palestinian suicide bombing campaigns in Israel,
starting in the 1990s. But all recent suicide bombings in Israel have been carried out by the
smaller, more extreme Islamic Jihad group, according to Israeli security officials.” Dari
kutipan ini terlihat bahwa kata Islam dilabelkan kepada sebuah grup jihad ekstrim. Padahal
128 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 dalam ajaran Islam tidak ada yang namanya sebuah jihad ekstrim. Dengan cara memasukan
kata Islamic ke dalam frasa extreme Islamic Jihad group dan menggaris bawahi frasa Islamic
Jihad, wartawan sepertinya ingin mengatakan bahwa Islam merupakan sebuah ajaran agama
yang ekstrim yang membiarkan seseorang untuk melakukan gerakan bunuh diri.hal ini tentu
saja sangat menyudutkan Islam. Karena, Islam sendiri tidak ada sebuah perintah untuk
melakukan jihad dengan melakukan bom bunuh diri. Dalam kutipan ini juga terlihat
bagaimana penyusunan kalimat dibuat sedemikian rupa sehingga Hamas pun sangat
disudutkan. Walaupun penggunaan kalimat kedua sepertinya menyangut terhadap gerakan
lain, bukan Hamas, namun karena kalimat sebelumnya menyebutkan kata Hamas sebagai
organisasi garis depan yang mengkampanyekan bom bunuh diri, maka kalimat ini membuat
seolah-olah Hamas pun ikut bertanggung jawab atas persitiwa tersebut.
Yang terakhir dari penggunaan ekspresi, yaitu idiom yang digunakan dalam berita.
Banyak idiom-idiom yang digunakan berupaya untuk menyudutkan Hamas. Seperti dalam
kalimat berikut; “but for unspecified reasons, the attack was not carried out. The truck
returned to Qalqilya, and later blew up there in what Shin Bet termed a “work accident.”
Dari penggunaan idiom blew up, yang merupakan bentuk lampau, di atas yang berasal dari
blow up, yang mana dalam bahasa Inggris idiom ini dapat diartikan sebagai ledakan yang
menghancurkan, atau ledakan yang terjadi secara tiba-tiba dan dengan paksaan (Oxford
Dictionary, 2010). Berdasarkan hal ini, penggunaan idiom, yang dilebih-lebihkan, ini jelas
dikaitkan dengan sebuah aksi terorisme yang memang ledakan itu memang disengaja dengan
tujuan untuk menghancurkan wilayah tertentu, yang mana yang dipersalahkan dalam hal ini
ialah Hamas. Selain itu sebelumnya terdapat idiom lain yang digunakan yaitu; carried out,
yang merupakan bentuk pasif dari Carry out, yang berarti membawa sesuatu atas suruhan atau
permintaan seseorang (Oxford Dictionary, 2010). Jika dilihat dari idiom ini sepertinya terlihat
bahwa wartawan ingin menjelaskan bahwa peledakan bom ini merupakan sebuah perintah.
Sehingga, penggunaan idiom ini jelas sangat menyudutkan Hamas karena secara tidak
langsung wartawan mendukung pernyatan Israel bahwa Hamas memang berada dibalik truk
yang berisi bom tersebut. Jika memang berita ini bersikap netral, atau tidak mendukung Israel
dan menyudutkan Hamas seharusnya idiom yang bersifat profokatif seperti “blow up”
seharusnya dapat menggunakan kata yang bersifat netral seperti “explode” dan idiom carried
out dapat diganti dengan kata “brought”.
Kemudian, dalam artikel berita yang berjudul “Israeli Family attacked in west Bank,
and 2 are killed”, akan terlihat detail yang menggambarkan bagaimana penyerangan
dilakukan terhadap orang yang tidak bersalah: “They were on their way to the nearby Israeli
town of Meitar to attend a pre-wedding meal for a daughter in the family; ...The mother and
three young girls were slightly hurt, and another son was shot in the leg”. Dari pengguanaan
detail ini jelas ingin menekankan betapa tindakan yang dilakukan oleh penyerang merupakan
tindakan yang tidak berperikemanusiaan karena menyerang orang-orang yang tak bersalah.
Dan ketika berita ini menuduh orang Palestina yang melakukan, maka sepertinya berita ini
ingin menyudutkan orang Palestina, yang secara tidak langsung dalam berita ini dianggap
sebagai tindakan yang “tidak berperikemanusiaan”.
Penyudutan ini pun terlihat dari elemen maksud dan detail diakhir berita: During the
same time, at least 85 Palestinians have been killed. Some were attacking or trying to attack
Israeli soldiers and civilians; others were killed during violent demonstrations. The latest
were two Palestinian men killed in demonstrations on Friday, local news media reported.
Dari kalimat awal paragraf ini, terlihat adanya penyamaan nasib, yang juga diderita warga
Palestina yang terbunuh. Namun detail dari paragraf ini justru sangat menyudutkan Palestina.
Ada sebuah penggambaran bahwa kematian warga Palestina disebabkan oleh tindakan mereka
sendiri yang mencoba menyerang tentara dan warga Israel, serta ketika mereka melakukan
demonstrasi. Dari penggunaan kata violent yang berarti kekerasan, maka berita ini memang
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 129 sengaja membuat sebuah pola dimana pada akhirnya orang palestina merupakan orang yang
sangat “menyukai kekerasan”. Penutup pada paragaraf ini sepertinya menjadi argumentasi
atau kesimpulan wartawan yang memang ingin membuat bahwa pelaku penyerangan, yang
menjadi berita utama artikel ini, ialah orang Palestina. Dan juga, dapat terlihat bahwa berita
ini telah membentuk makna bahwa tindakan demonstrasi dan kekerasan yang dilakukan warga
palestina merupakan tindakan terorisme, dan hal yang wajar jika pada akhirnya mereka
terbunuh.
Dari aspek stilistik dan sintaksis, artikel berita ini juga memperlihatkan penyudutan
terhadap Hamas dan Islam, misalnya dari kalimat berikut: “No group had claimed
responsibility for the shooting by Friday evening, though the militant group Hamas and the
smaller Palestinian group Islamic Jihad both praised it as “heroic”.” Dari kalimat ini terlihat
adanya sebuah koherensi kalimat yang bertujuan menambah inforamsi artikel ini, yaitu
penggunaan kata “though”. Jelas memang pelaku tindakan penyerangan tidak diketahui
namun dengan menambahkan bahwa Hamas dan kelompok jihad lain menyebutnya sebagai
tindakan “pahlawan” tentu akan membuat makna bahwa tindakan ini sangat didukung Hamas
dan kelompok Jihad yang lain.
Dari analisis mikro kedua berita, sepertinya memang terlihat adanya sebuah bentuk
prasangka dan diskriminasi melalui bahasa atau yang disebut van Dijk (2005: 2) dengan
linguistic prejudice and discrimination or ‘linguicism’. Dalam kedua berita ini terlihat
penggunaan bahasa yang berupaya untuk memarjinalisasi atau menyudutkan Palestina,
Hamas, maupaun Islam itu sendiri.
E.
KESIMPULAN
Berdasarkan sebuah analisa wacana kritis dengan menggunakan teroi Van Dijk, maka
dapat disimpulkan bahwa media Amerika “New York Times”, dalam artikelnya berjudul
“Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks” dan “Israeli Family attacked in west
Bank, and 2 are killed”, memiliki ideologi untuk mendukung Israel dan menjatuhkan
Palestina khususnya Hamas, serta Islam itu sendiri. Hal ini jelas karena Palestina, khususnya
Hamas, yang diidentikan dengan Islam dan Islam selalu diidentikan dengan teroris maka akan
sulit untuk mendapat dukungan dari Amerika. Hal ini menjadikan Palestina, khusunya Hamas,
menjadi termajinalisasikan dikalangan Amerika.
Melalui Analisa struktur makro dan mikro dalam berita, dapat terlihat dalam artikel ini
wartawan mencoba untuk memarjinalisasikan Palestina, Hamas dan juga Islam. Hal ini
terlihat dari penggunaan bahasa yang meliputi kalimat yang digunakan serta teknik
penempatan kalimat. Selain itu juga terlihat dari penggunaan leksikon dan ekspresi, bahwa
secara keseluruhan artikel ini sangat memojokan Palestina, Hamas dan Islam, dan lebih
mendukung atau menguntungkan Israel.

Israel Says Hamas Was Plotting Terrorist Attacks
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/11/world/middleeast/11mideast.html
By ISABEL KERSHNER Published: April 11, 2007
JERUSALEM, April 10 — Recent interrogations of arrested members of Hamas in the West
Bank town of Qalqilya produced information that the Islamic organization there was planning
imminent terrorist attacks against Israel, including one using a large truck bomb, the Israeli
Shin Bet internal security service said Tuesday.
Hamas, which is now the dominant faction in the Palestinian government, has not conducted
suicide attacks within Israel since 2004 and has been committed to an Israeli-Palestinian
cease-fire agreement in the Gaza Strip since November. People who usually speak for Hamas
would not react to the Shin Bet report on Tuesday, apparently in an attempt to not lend the
allegations any credence.
Some observers have pointed to a growing split within Hamas between those in the
government who are seeking international recognition and want to refrain from attacking
Israel and more hard-line members.
Hamas has denied that such a division exists.
According to a rare public statement by Shin Bet, its agents found out about what they said
were plans for suicide attacks from Qalqilya after interrogating detainees and learning of the
truck bomb. Shin Bet said it was told that a would-be suicide bomber had driven a truck
packed with about 220 pounds of explosives to the Tel Aviv area in March, but for
unspecified reasons, the attack was not carried out. The truck returned to Qalqilya, and later
blew up there in what Shin Bet termed a “work accident.”
Shin Bet said that 19 members of the Hamas network in Qalqilya were arrested in March,
which it said thwarted plans to carry out attacks during the recent Passover holiday. The
statement went on to warn that Hamas operatives in Qalqilya “continue to work on the
planning and execution of significant attacks, including ones in the immediate future.”
The truck bomb was many times larger than bombs that have been used to explode Israeli
buses.
In the wake of the Shin Bet statement, David Baker, an official in the office of Israel’s prime
minister, Ehud Olmert, said Hamas “continues to target Israeli civilians.
“Terrorism is a cornerstone of the new Palestinian government, a government that should be
shunned,” he said.
In March, Hamas joined with the more mainstream Fatah faction in a unity government.
Israel maintains a complete boycott of the government, and has been calling on the
international community to do the same, with limited success. The United States and Europe
are maintaining contacts with the non-Hamas ministers, and a senior British diplomat met
with Prime Minister Ismail Haniya of Hamas last week on what was described as a
humanitarian mission to help secure the release of a British journalist kidnapped in Gaza.
Hamas was at the vanguard of Palestinian suicide bombing campaigns in Israel, starting in the
1990s. But all recent suicide bombings in Israel have been carried out by the smaller, more
extreme Islamic Jihad group, according to Israeli security officials.
The Palestinian unity government guidelines refer to the Palestinians’ “legitimate right” to
resistance “in all its forms,” but also speak of extending the cease-fire from Gaza to the West
Bank.
There have long been differences between the more pragmatic political leaders of Hamas,
who now sit in government, and the military underground that is believed to answer to more
hard-line leaders in exile.
132 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 A senior Israeli Army commander, speaking on condition of anonymity, said recently that in
Israel’s assessment, Hamas had not changed its policy regarding attacks in Israel, but that
there were “some groups in the military wing of Hamas that don’t like the cease-fire or the
unity government.”
On March 19, the Izzedine al-Qassam Brigades, the military underground of Hamas, claimed
responsibility for the shooting and wounding of an Israeli Electric Corporation employee who
was working inside Israel near the Gaza border fence. That was the first attack of any kind
claimed by Hamas since November.
Fawzi Barhoum, a Hamas spokesman in Gaza, denied any divisions in Hamas over the unity
government and dismissed such talk as “Israeli propaganda aimed at trying to bring about
Hamas’s collapse.”
A Hamas-orchestrated suicide bombing in the Park Hotel in the coastal city of Netanya on the
eve of Passover in 2002 killed 30, and precipitated Israel’s reinvasion of the Palestinian cities
of the West Bank. Shortly afterward, the Israeli cabinet approved the construction of the West
Bank security barrier, following intense public pressure to find a way of keeping suicide
bombers out.
The driver of the explosive-laden truck sent recently to Tel Aviv was able to pass through a
gate in the barrier, exploiting the fact that he holds an Israeli identification card because his
father is married to an Israeli citizen, Shin Bet said. The truck also had Israeli license plates,
the statement said. It did not indicate who the driver was or what had happened to him.
According to Israeli military officials, the Hamas infrastructure is particularly developed in
Qalqilya, where Hamas won all the seats in local council elections in 2005.

Israeli Family Attacked in West Bank, and 2 Are Killed
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/14/world/middleeast/israelis-are-killed-on-west-bank.html
By Diaa Hadid
JERUSALEM — An Israeli father and son were killed and five other members of their family
were wounded in a drive-by shooting near a Jewish settlement in the occupied West Bank on
Friday.
The Israeli authorities locked down a wide area as they searched for the assailants, who they
believed were Palestinians, the Israeli military and local news outlets reported. Yehuda Glick,
an official at Otniel, the settlement close to where the attack occurred, said witnesses had
identified the slain men as a father and son, 45 and 18. The men were from Kiryat Arba,
another settlement, Mr. Glick said. They were on their way to the nearby Israeli town of
Meitar to attend a pre-wedding meal for a daughter in the family.
Five other members of the family were wounded in the attack, according to Dr. Tzvi Perry, a
physician at the Soroka Medical Center in the nearby city of Beersheba, where the wounded
were treated, The Associated Press reported. The mother and three young girls were slightly
hurt, and another son was shot in the leg.
No group had claimed responsibility for the shooting by Friday evening, though the militant
group Hamas and the smaller Palestinian group Islamic Jihad both praised it as “heroic.”
Israel’s Channel 10 News reported that the assailants had been waiting in a vehicle at a bend
in the road and spotted the victims’ van. They followed it, overtook it and opened fire, first
killing the father, the broadcaster reported. The van went off the road, and the son phoned for
an ambulance. It appeared that the attackers then opened fire again, killing the son.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 133 The voice of a man said to have been one of the victims was recorded pleading for help in a
call to Israeli emergency services, according to Channel 10, which broadcast the recording.
The authenticity of the call could not be immediately verified independently.
The attack appeared to be similar to one on Oct. 1 near Itamar, a Jewish settlement in the
northern West Bank, in which a couple were killed in front of their four young children. That
attack is widely seen as one of the first in the recent unrest, which has mostly taken the form
of demonstrations, stabbing attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians, and attempts to hit
them with vehicles. Shootings have been more unusual — at least seven since the latest
violence began in October, compared with 65 stabbings, according to Israel’s Foreign
Ministry.
The shooting on Friday took place near Hebron in the southern West Bank, which has
emerged as a locus of the uprising, alongside a surrounding belt of villages. The attack raised
the number of Israelis killed in the latest surge of violence to 13.
During the same time, at least 85 Palestinians have been killed. Some were attacking or trying
to attack Israeli soldiers and civilians; others were killed during violent demonstrations. The
latest were two Palestinian men killed in demonstrations on Friday, local news media
reported.
A third Palestinian died on Friday from wounds sustained in clashes the previous day, the
Palestinian Ministry of Health said. More than 70 people were wounded in demonstrations in
the West Bank and on the Gaza border, mostly from live fire on Friday.

Abstract
There are some factors that influence second language acquisition they are anxiety,
social distance, age differences, aptitude, motivation, personality and learning style, and the
last one is learning strategies. Learning strategies are strategies used by learners in order to
achieve their goals in learning second language. The aims of this research are (1) to identify
learning strategies used by good oral competent students of MAN Karanggede and (2) to
analyze factors that contribute the choice of learning strategies used by good oral competent
students of MAN Karanggede. This research is a qualitative research which focuses on case
study research. The participants are two students from the eleventh grade of MAN
Karanggede which choose from students score and observation. The researcher use
observation, questionnaire and interview to collect the data. The result of the study shows that
learning strategy used by good oral competent students are memory strategy, cognitive
strategy, compensation strategy affective strategy and social strategy. They ask for
clarification to correct their mistake and they ask their teacher to help them if they have
difficulties. They also uses cognitive and compensation strategies which refers to use
practicing, receiving and sending messages strategies, analyzing and reasoning the learners
translate the language deductively to understand the subject easily.The factors that contribute
the choices of learning strategy from student 1 because song is long lasting she easier to
improve her speaking skill with that learning strategy. On the other side, student 2 focus on
reviewing well because it can help him understanding and remembering the new vocabulary.
Keywords: Learning Strategy, Speaking Skill
A.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Ellis (2004: 4) in (Fauziati, 2010: 77) states that there are many factors that influence
Second Language Acquisition (SLA), they are internal and external factors. The external
factors are the social milieu and the input. The internal factors are age, aptitude, motivation
and attitude, personality, cognitive style, hemisphere specialisation, and learning strategies. In
this research the researcher focuses on learning strategy uses by good oral competent students.
The literature on learning strategies in second language acquisition emerged from a
concern for identifying the characteristics of effective learners. Research efforts concentrating
on the "good language learner" (Naiman et al. 1978; Rubin 1975; O’Malley.1990;
Oxford.1990) in Fauziati (2010: 153-160) had identified strategies reported by students or
observed in language learning situations that appear to contribute to learning. According to
O'Malley and Chamot (1990: 43) learning strategies have been defined as the special thoughts
or behaviors that individuals use to help them comprehend, learn, or retain new information.
So, learning strategy is the effort used by the students to achieve their goal in Foreign
Language.
134 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 135 The success of learners in achieving their goal in learning foreign language it is also
influenced by the teacher. Teachers are obliged not only to be knowledgeable of the teaching
topics, but they are also to be skillful in the language and in transferring their knowledge to
the students. In addition, teachers have to be creative and innovative in preparing the teaching
materials and make authentic assessment for their students so the students will have real
experiences in teaching and learning process. Moreover, the teachers should have
understanding about their students because every student has different knowledge, capacity
and capability.
This research conducted in Islamic Senior High School (MAN) Karanggede. MAN
Karanggede located in village about 50 Kilometers from Boyolali Regency. There are two
English teachers in this school they are teacher 1, and teacher 2. They graduated from English
Department. The teachers participated in English teacher community to develop their skill.
The members of English teacher community are all of English teachers from Islamic Senior
High School in Boyolali regency whose members are about 20 teachers. In this community
the teachers discuss about how to improve the curricula, syllabi, lesson plan, materials, and
class activities that will help learners understand the materials easier.
The subject of the research is the eleventh grade students of MAN Karanggede. There
are four classes in the eleventh grade, one science class, two social classes and one region
class. However, the researcher chooses one class as subject of the research that is science
class. Based on observation on first December 2015 and students score, there are two students
who have good oral competence they are student 1 and student 2. Moreover, the student 1
ever becomes first winner in speaking contest at regency level. There are thirty one students
in this class, the motivation in learning English are in average level especially in speaking
skill. Students have opinion that English is a difficult subject. However, there are two students
who have good oral competence they are able to speak English fluently and clearly.
Based on the explanation above, the researcher decides to make a research about
learning strategies used by good oral competence students in MAN Karanggede. The thing
that make researcher interest to do the research is most of students in MAN Karanggede have
opinion that English is difficult and not interesting subject but there are two students who
have good achievement in learning English.
Based on the background, the researcher emphasizes the research on learning strategies
used by two students who have good oral competence. The researcher formulates the research
questions or focus of the study as follows:
1. What are the learning strategies used by good oral competence students of MAN
Karanggede?
2. What factors contribute to the choice of learning strategies used by good oral
competent students of MAN Karanggede?
The Objective of the Study are:
1.
To identify learning strategies used by good oral competent students of MAN
Karanggede.
2.
To analyze factors that contributes to the choice of learning strategies used by
good oral competent students of MAN Karanggede.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Language Learning Strategies
According to O'Malley and Chamot (1990: 43) learning strategies have been defined as
the special thoughts or behaviors that individuals use to help them comprehend, learn, or
136 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 retain new information. Learning strategies may include any of the following: focusing on
selected aspects of new information, analyzing and monitoring information during
acquisition, organizing or elaborating on new information during the encoding process,
evaluating the learning when it is completed, or assuring oneself that the learning will be
successful as a way to allay anxiety.
Thus, strategies may have an affective or conceptual basis, and may influence the
learning of simple tasks, such as learning vocabulary or items in a list, or complex tasks, such
as language comprehension or language production (O'Malley and Chamot 1990:43).
However, according to Cohen (2003: 280) in Paredes, (2010: 16) language learning strategies
are the conscious or semi-conscious thoughts and behaviors used by learners with the explicit
goal of improving their knowledge and understanding of a target language.
Cohen (1998: 4) in Selinker (2008: 439) defines language learning (and language use)
strategies as:
those processes which are consciously selected by learners and which may result
in action taken to enhance the learning or use of a second or foreign language,
through the storage, retention, recall, and application of information about that
language.
Oxford (1999: 518) in Selinker (2008: 439) refers to learning strategies as specific
actions, behaviors, steps, or techniques that students use to improve their own progress in
developing skills in a second or foreign language. From the explanation above language
learning strategies is the way learners learn the second or foreign language in order to achieve
their goals in learning second or foreign language.

Oxford’s Learning Strategy Taxonomy
Oxford (1990: 9) in Fauziati (2010: 160-161) sees the aim of language learning
strategies as being oriented towards the development of communicative competence. Oxford
divides language learning strategies into two main classes, direct and indirect, which are
further subdivided into 6 groups. In Oxford's system, metacognitive strategies help learners to
regulate their learning. Affective strategies are concerned with the learner's emotional
requirements such as confidence, while social strategies lead to increased interaction with the
target language. Cognitive strategies are the mental strategies learners use to make sense of
their learning, memory strategies are those used for storage of information, and compensation
strategies help learners to overcome knowledge gaps to continue the communication. Oxford's
(1990: 17) in Fauziati (2010: 160-161) taxonomy of language learning strategies is shown in
the following:
1)
Direct Strategies
a)
Memory Strategies
Memory strategies consist of creating mental linkages, applying images and
sounds, reviewing well, and employing action.
(1) Creating Mental Linkages
The learners make a group to make students easier understanding the
material.
(2) Applying image or sounds
Using images, key words and mapping to memorize the material.
(3) Reviewing well
The students used structural reviewing.
(4) Employing action
The students response physically and use technique mechanically.

1.
Cognitive Strategies
(1) Practicing
Practicing means formally practicing with system of sound and writing,
repeating, recombining and using formulas and pattern to understand the
materials.
(2) Receiving and sending messages strategies
The students use some resources for receiving and getting idea quickly.
(3) Analysing and reasoning
The learners analyzing translate the language deductively to understand the
subject easily.
(4) Creating structure for input and output
The students take notes and summarize the material.
c)
Compensation strategies
(1) Guessing intelligently
The learners guess the meaning of word by some clues or mother tongue.
(2) Overcoming limitations in speaking and writing
Using gesture, switch to mother tongue to make listeners understand their
goals or means.
Indirect Strategies
a)
Metacognitive Strategies
Metacognitive strategies consist of subcategories, they are:
(1) Arranging and planning your learning
The learners find their language learning, set the aim, seek the opportunities.
(2) Evaluating your learning themselves to measure wheather they understand the
material or not.
b)
Affective Strategies
(1) Lowering your anxiety
The students use relaxation, mediation for lowering their anxiety.
(2) Encouraging yourself
The students make positive statements and reward themselves.
(3) Taking your emotional temperature
The students control their emotion and share their feeling to someone else.
c)
Social Strategies
(1) Asking questions
The learners ask for clarification to correct their mistakes.
(2) Cooperating with others
The students cooperate with the other to solve the problem and difficulties.
(3) Emphathising with others
The students learn other culture and increase the cultural understanding and
appreciation to the other culture.
RESEARCH METHOD
Type of Research
The type of this research is a case study research. According to Creswell (2002) a case
study is a problem to be studied, which will reveal an in-depth understanding of a “case” or
bounded system, which involves understanding an event, activity, process, or one or more
individuals.
138 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 2.
Subject of the research
The subject of this research is the eleventh grade students of Islamic Senior High
School of Karanggede. There are five classes in this school, two classes in social majors, one
class in religion major and one class of science. In this research the researcher takes science
class as the subject of the research. There are twenty five students in this class but the
researcher takes two students which classified as good oral competence for her research.
3.
Object of the research
The object of this research is learning strategies used by good oral competent students
of MAN Karanggede.
4.
Data and Data Source
The data are collected from questionnaire, interview and class observation. The data
sources comes from two students which have good oral competent.
5.
Method of Collecting data
According to Fauziati (2010:162-163) there are some tools that can be used to collect
the data in learning strategies research. They are interview, questionnaire and students’ diaries
and journal. Every tool has advantages and disadvantages. According to Brown (2001:6) in
Dornyei (2003:6) questionnaires are any written instruments that present respondents with a
series of questions or statements to which they are to react either by writing out their answers
or selecting from among existing answers. There are 50 questions in this questionnaire. By the
use of this instrument, the following six types of strategies proposed by Oxford (1990) could
be examined: memory (items 1-9), cognitive (items 10-23), compensation (items 24-29),
metacognitive (items 30-38), affective (items 39-44), and social learning strategies (items 4550). Then the questionnaire analyzed using SPSS 17.0.
6.
Data Validity
In this research the researcher will uses triangulation to validate the data. An openended perspective in constructivism adheres with the notion of data triangulation by allowing
participants in a research to assist the researcher in the research question as well as with the
data collection. Engaging multiple methods, such as, observation, interviews and recordings
will lead to more valid, reliable and diverse construction of realities.
To improve the analysis and understanding of construction of others, triangulation is a
step taken by researchers to involve several investigators or peer researchers’ interpretation of
the data at different time or location. In this research, the triangulation data come from
interview, observation and questionnaire.
7.
Technique of Analyzing Data
After collecting the data the next step is analyzing the data. In this research the
researcher will use Miles and Huberman theory. Miles and Huberman (1994:12) state that the
methods of data analysis called Interactive Model which is included four steps of analysis
activity in cyclical and interactive process.
1.
Data collection, the first step of data analysis is data collection. Data collections in
this research are observation, interview and questionnaire. These are used to find
out the kinds of students’ language learning strategies used by high achiever
students of Islamic Senior High School of Karanggede in order to develop their
speaking skill.
2.
Data reduction, Miles and Huberman states (1994:12): “Data reduction refers to
the process of selecting, focusing, simplifying, abstracting, and transforming the
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 139 3.
D.
data that appear in written-up field notes or transcriptions”. In this step the
research will selecting and simplifies the data sources that related with research
questions. The researcher will reduce the data from questionnaire and students’
journal that not appropriate with research questions.
Data display, the next step is data display. After collect and reduce the data, the
writer displayed the collective data in organized and compressed information that
will leads to conclusion. The forms of qualitative data display include types of
matrices, graphs, charts, or networks. The function of these types of data display
is to perform accessible, compact, and organized information of the data. In this
step the researcher selecting and classifying the data into Oxford’s Language
Learning Strategies (LLS) taxonomy. The data findings are displayed in this
order: (a) type learning strategies used by good oral competent students (b) the
factors that contribute to the choice of learning strategies used by good oral
competent students. Conclusion drawing and verification, after the data displayed,
then the writer would able to interpret it and reaches conclusions and
verifications. The researcher will describe and interpret the data so that the
conclusions and verifications of the language learning strategies can be drawn.
RESULT OF THE STUDY AND DISCUSSION
The first objective of the study is learning strategies used by good oral competent
students of MAN Karanggede there are two students as the object of the research. Based on
the interview and questionnaire learning strategy used by student 1 is memory strategy that is
applying image or sounds. She is listening music to improve her vocabulary. Cognitive
strategy refers to practicing, receiving and sending message strategies, analyzing and
reasoning. The last is compensation strategies guessing intelligent, the learner guess the
meaning of word by some clues and overcoming limitations in speaking and writing using
gesture. Indirect strategies used by first students is affective strategy refers to lowering the
anxiety, encouraging yourself, taking the emotional temperature. She is lowering her anxiety
with feel confidence although she makes a mistake. The last strategy is social strategy; she
uses asking questions if she has question in her mind. She usually asks to the teacher,
sometimes father or brother.
Based on the interview and questionnaire learning strategy used by student 2 is direct
strategy that is memory strategy which focuses on creating mental linkage the learner making
a group to make students easier understanding the material.In cognitive strategy second
student uses practicing, receiving and sending messages strategies, analyzing and reasoning
the learners translate the language deductively to understand the subject easily. Creating
structure for input and output, the students take notes and summarize the material. The last is
compensation strategies guessing intelligent, the learner guess the meaning of word by some
clues and overcoming limitations in speaking and writing using gesture. Indirect strategy used
by second students is affective strategy, lowering anxiety, encouraging self and taking
emotional temperature. The last is social strategies, second students asking question for
clarification to correct the mistake he usually ask teacher to clarify his mistake.
The second objective of the research is the factors that contribute to the choice of
learning strategy. The student 1 applying song as learning strategy because song is long
lasting, song do not reduce by time. Student 1 thinks that memory strategy especially applying
song makes her easier to remember the vocabulary. On the other hand, student 2 uses memory
strategy especially in reviewing well. He makes a schedule for study and remember the
vocabulary every day three vocabulary minimally.
140 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Based on the result above, learning strategy used by good oral competent students are
memory strategy, cognitive strategy, compensation strategy affective strategy and social
strategy. They ask for clarification to correct their mistake and they ask their teacher to help
them if they have difficulties. They also uses cognitive and compensation strategies which
refers to use practicing, receiving and sending messages strategies, analyzing and reasoning
the learners translate the language deductively to understand the subject easily. There are
different learning strategies used by two students. They have different learning strategy
because they have different background in learning English. First students have a father who
help her to develop his English competence, her parent push her to join in English course.
However, second student choose his friend as his partner to develop his English competence.

ABSTRACT
This research aims at: 1) to know the implementation of scrambled sentences to the
students’ writing ability on recount text, and 2) to find out how far scrambled sentences
improve students’ writing ability on recount text at the eighth grade students of MTs Negeri
Surakarta 2.
The research was conducted in two cycles at the eighth grade students of MTs Negeri
Surakarta 2 from April 15th 2013 to April 30th 2013, in which both of cycles consist of two
meetings. Each cycle consisted of five steps: planning, implementing, observing, reflecting,
and revising after cycle 1 implemented. The research data were collected by using
observation, interview and tests. The qualitative data were analyzed through describing all of
the implementations in both of cycle 1 and cycle 2.
The research findings described every treatments of using scrambled sentences both of
the cycle 1 and cycle 2 during the research. The treatments of scrambled sentences, the
students given some sentences in scrambled order (mixing-words) by the researcher then they
were asked to make unscrambled order. After that, the researcher gave corrections to the
students’ exercises. The research findings also proved that the technique of scrambled
sentences implemented at the students could improve their writing ability especially on
recount text. The final result of the tests showed that the students’ score increased from test
cycle 1 to test cycle 2 both of mean score and score that passed standard minimum score
(KKM) used in MTs Negeri Surakarta 2, which is (65). Students’ mean score improve, 48.24
in pre test to 57.94 in test cycle 1 and improve significantly 68.83 in test cycle 2. In the test
cycle 1 just 24% of 37 students could passed KKM, it improved significantly in the test cycle
2 that 78% of 37 students passed KKM. The researcher found this research could improve
students’ writing ability. The scrambled sentences became one technique that can be applied
in teaching writing.

INTRODUCTION
Language is primarily an instrument of communication among human being in a
community. Larsen-Freeman (2003: 2) states that language is a means of interaction between
and among people. One of the international languages is English. For Indonesian students,
understanding English was not easy because it was different from our native language,
Indonesian. English communicative competence covers four skills, namely reading, listening,
speaking, and writing. The four language skills, both spoken and written, were taught in an
integrated way supported by some language aspects, such as grammar, vocabulary,
pronunciation and spelling. When we learned a second language, we learned to communicate
with other people: to understand them, talk to them, read what they have written and write to
141 142 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 them. The fact that people frequently have to communicate with each other in writing was one
of the reasons to master writing skill well.
Writing is a complex activity since it requires students’ comprehensive abilities such as
mastering grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation. Besides, to write well, the students
expected to be able to present their ideas in the written form as writing is a means of
communication.
Most of Indonesian students had difficulties in mastering writing skill, it also happened
to the students of MTs Negeri Surakarta 2. It was very difficult for students of MTs Negeri
Surakarta 2. It faced from the result of pre test implemented by the researcher to the VIII-I
class. Based on the standard competence of English writing at the eighth grade of junior high
school in second semester is to show the meaning of functional written text and short and
simple essay in the forms of narrative and recount texts for having interaction with
surrounding environment. Moreover the indicators of competence in English writing at this
grade for the second semester are: can complete sentence in form of descriptive and recount
text; can understand about grammar structure in simple sentence of simple present tense,
simple past tense, and past continuous tense; can be rich in vocabularies; and can understand
about punctuation and spelling.
Based on the result of the pre-research by interviewing English teacher and observing
while English teaching learning in MTs Negeri Surakarta 2, the researcher identified some
problems faced by the eighth grade students in learning writing: a) They had low level of
writing ability so that they found difficulties in developing their ideas into the written
language. (b) They seemed to be discouraged to have writing lesson. In short, they tried to
avoid it because they were afraid if they make many errors in writing. The English teacher
told the researcher that the problem faced by the student when the students are asked to make
a written text, because of the lack of vocabulary and grammar structures mastery, and the lack
of creativity they just copied the example of the text teacher gave and changed a little about it.
The English teachers can use some techniques to teach writing such as using various
pictures, contextual teaching and learning approach, using parallel writing technique, using
mind mapping/clustering technique, etc. By applying one of the techniques, the teacher can
encourage the students to participate in the classroom activities. The teacher should be able to
encourage the students to express their ideas into good writing. The teacher gives
opportunities to the students to write their ideas without being afraid of making mistake. It
can be done by introducing topics and a good writing process.
Endang Fauziati (2009:142) stated, the students are given a text in which the sentences
are in a scrambled order. This may be a text they have worked with or one they have not seen
before. They are told to unscramble the sentences so that the sentences are restored to their
cohesion and coherence properties of language (discourse competence). They learn how
sentences are bound together at the supra-sentential level through formal linguistic devices
such as anaphoric, which unify a text and makes it coherent. In addition to written passages,
students might also be asked to unscramble the lines of a mixed-dialog or asked to put the
pictures of picture strip story in order and write lines to accompany the pictures.
Based on the background above, the researcher interested to conduct a study on
“Improving Students’ Writing Ability on Recount Text by Using Scrambled Sentences
(A Classroom Action Research at the Eighth Grade Students of MTs Negeri Surakarta 2
in the Academic Year of 2012/2013)”.
RESEARCH LIMITATION
Writing includes the use of grammar, vocabulary, mechanic, fluency, and form of
organization. Since there are some aspects of the writing, the researcher limits it to sentence
construction which deals with grammar, mechanic and form organization on teaching recount
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 143 text by using scrambled sentences. It had conducted at the second semester students of MTs
Negeri Surakarta 2.

DEFINITION OF KEYTERMS
1.
Writing
Writing is the process of thinking to invent ideas, thinking about how to express into
good writing, and arranging the ideas into statement and paragraph clearly (Nunan, 2003:88).
2.
Ability
The term of ability is defined as skill or power. Concisely, writing ability is the skill to
express ideas, thoughts, and feelings to other people in written symbols to make other people
or readers understand the ideas conveyed. (http://teachingenglishonline.net/definition-ofwriting-ability/).
3.
Recount
Recount is a text that has social function to retell events for purpose of informing or
entertaining. It has three generic of the structure, there are orientation (provides the setting
and introduces participants), events (tell what happened in what sequence, and re-orientation
(optional-closure of events) ( Suryana, 2008:34).
4.
Scrambled sentences
Scrambled sentence is the technique that the students are given a text in which the
sentences are in scrambled order (Fauziati, 1999:142).
5.
A Classroom Action Research
A classroom action research is the application of fact finding, to practical problem
solving in a social situation with a view to improving the quality of action within it, involving
the collaboration and cooperation of researchers, practitioners, and laymen that implemented
in a class (Burns, 1999:30).
LITERARY REVIEW
1.
Definition of Writing Ability
Nunan (2003: 88) defines that writing is the process of thinking to invent ideas, thinking
about how to express into good writing, and arranging the ideas into statement and paragraph
clearly. Writing is a complex activity since it requires students’ comprehensive abilities such
as mastering grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation. Besides, to write well, the students are
expected to be able to present their ideas in the written form as writing is a means of
communication. Based on the theories above, writing is an act of putting letters, symbols,
numbers, or words on paper or a computer screen which is used to express and explain ideas.
144 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Specifically, writing is the expression of language in the form of symbols, letters, or words.
The primary function of writing is to communicate the writers’ ideas to their readers.
Harris (1969) in Rodriques (2000: 68) illustrated five aspects that should be directly
involved in writing performance, those are:
• Content in which the idea is expressed;
• Form that refers to the organization of the content;
• Grammar which describes the employment of grammatical forms and syntactic
patterns;
• Style which includes the choice of structures and lexical items to give a particular tone
or flavor to the writing; and
• Mechanics employ the use of the graphic conventions of the language
2.
Writing Assessment
Reid (1993: 235), the evaluation using analytic method elaborate writing product into
five components. They are: content, form/organization, vocabulary/style, language
use/grammar, and mechanics. In this research, the researcher used scrambled sentences
technique. So, the researcher found the score of students recount text from the tests based on
the form/organization, grammar and mechanics. Form/ organization that were about true or
not the students located the mixing sentences. Grammar, the students used correct grammar or
not in writing recount text. The last mechanic about correct or not the students put
punctuation, capitalization and paragraphing recount text.
3.
Scrambled Sentences Technique
Endang Fauziati (2009:142), a scrambled sentence is the technique that the students are
given a text in which the sentences are in scrambled order. This may be a text they have
worked with or one they have not seen before. They are told to unscramble the sentences so
that the sentences are restored to their cohesion and coherence properties of language
(discourse competence). They learn how sentences are bound together at the supra-sentential
level through formal linguistics devices such as anaphoric, which unify a text and makes it
coherent. In addition to written passages, students might also be asked to unscramble the lines
of a mixed-dialog or asked to put the pictures of picture strip story in order and write lines to
accompany the pictures.
4.
The Role of Scrambled Sentences Technique in Teaching Writing
The procedures to do scrambled sentences technique:
- Students are asked to unscramble the sentences so that the sentences are stored to their
original order, learning coherence and cohesive.
- Unscramble sentences are the lines of a mixed-up paragraph to build passage.
- It may put pictures of a picture strip story in order to make easy the students to make
unscramble sentences.
5.
Hypothesis
Based on the basic assumptions above, the hypothesis formulated as follows:
- Scrambled sentences technique improved the students’ writing recount text in teaching
learning process.
- The class more active and communicative when scrambled sentences technique
applied in teaching writing, and how far the result of the research faced clearly.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 145 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
A.
Setting of the Research
This research conducted in MTs Negeri Surakarta 2. It was located at Jl. Transito,
Suronalan, Pajang, Laweyan, Surakarta. Its location was strategic, easy in transportation and
near of the city. The researcher was held the research from April 15th 2013 to April 30th 2013.
B.
Subject of the Research
The subject of the research was the eighth grade students of MTs Negeri Surakarta 2 in
the academic year of 2012/2013. The researcher conducted to the student of VIII-I. The
number of the students was 37 students, and the researcher conducted research in this class by
considering the problem faced by this class.
C.
Method of Research
The research method used in this study was a classroom action research. There are
many definitions about Classroom Action Research. The first definition is given by Kemmis
(1983) in McNiff (1992: 2) who says that Action Research is a form of self reflective inquiry
undertaken by participants (teachers, students, or principals, for example) in social (including
educational) situations in order to improve the rationality and justice of (a) their own social or
educational practices, (b) their understanding of these practices, and (c) the situations (and
institutions) in which these practices are carried out.
D.
Procedure of the Research
Based on action research spiral by Kemmis & Mc Taggart in Burns 1999: 33, the
process done in this research runs with the following procedures:
- Identifying the Problem  To start an action research project, the researcher needed
to decide the problem. In this research, the problems identified after do the preresearch and interview with the English teachers.
- Planning  the researcher prepared everything that needed during the action in order
to improve the students’ writing ability such as made a lesson plans using
scrambled sentences on it then the researcher prepared the media that used in this
research.
- Action Implementation  researcher did the planning as the researcher prepared
before.
- Observation  The observation phase has done during the teaching and learning
process. In this phase, the researcher asked a partner to observe everything
happened in the teaching learning process.
- Reflection  At the end of the action implementation, the researcher and the
collaborator reflected critically on what happened during the research.
- Revised Plan  Revised plan have been needed when the action cycle did not make
any improvement on the students’ writing skill. It means that the researcher
should do further cycle.
E.
Technique of Collecting Data
The kind of data collecting in this research were interviewed the English teacher and the
student before implemented the action, observation did by English teacher as the collaborator.

Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 147 The summary of research implementation
a.
Pre Research
The researcher conducted pre observation to know the condition of English
teaching learning. Then, the researcher interviewed both of English teacher and one of
the student’s VIII-I. After that, the researcher conducted pretest to make sure that the
writing ability in VIII-I class still in low level and need improvement in the next case.
The aims of pretest given are to know the students competence in writing ability. The
researcher explained little about recount text, gave the example of recount text, then the
researcher asked the student to build passage as they can. The researcher asked the
students built 3 paragraphs that minimal consist of 5 sentences. The topic of this recount
text the researcher asked is unforgettable experiences. So, the students could make
freely based on their experiences.
The result of the pretest was not far from the English teacher said. Most of the
students just copied the example of recount text given by the researcher when the
researcher explained about recount text. The students changed its title and the name of
the characters then the students rewrite on a piece of paper.
b.
Cycle 1
The researcher identified the problem based on pre research then maked
planning for the action in cycle 1.
1)
Implementing the action
- 1st meeting:
The researcher told the students that the day’s activities would be writing section
especially on recount text by using scrambled sentences technique. By considering the
teacher’s statement that the students have learned about recount text before, the
researcher just explained recount text by fast. The researcher also gave the students
materials about past tense. The researcher gave example of recount text that used in
pretest before. The researcher continued for the next step. The researcher gave the
students about seven numbers of mixing words wrote in the whiteboard. The researcher
did one number as the example, and asked the students to do the other number. The
researcher gave time for about 15 minutes to do the exercise. After finished, the
researcher gave correction in that exercises. Four students that came forward, write the
incorrect sentences. After gave corrections, the researcher thought that the students had
ability to make good sentences from scrambled sentences.
- 2nd meeting:
The students’ given 8 number of exercises, all of the number consist of scrambled
sentences (mixing words) that use present tense. The student asked to make
unscrambled sentences and changed the present tense to past tense, and then the
students asked to build 3 paragraphs of recount text from it scrambled sentences by the
title “Going to EOS Studio”. The result of post test showed that the students’ mean
score improved from 48.24 in the pretest to 57.94 in test cycle 1.
2)
Observing the action
The collaborator saw and stated that he met some students still confused then they
talked each other. Even some of the students still confused, the researcher met
improvement based on the students’ test score. The students’ pre test mean score 48.24
then in the test cycle 1 57.94.
148 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 3)
Reflecting the action
From the observation above, the researcher and the English teacher got the result
from first cycle. They were found several positive results and some weaknesses from
the first cycle
4)
Revising the action
The researcher realized that there were improvement in students’ writing ability,
but the researcher still found some problems faced by the students that should be solved
soon. Besides the means score did not fulfill the standard minimum score (KKM) that
used in MTs Negeri Surakarta 2, based on result in first cycle, it was found that some
students were still confused on mixing scrambled sentences to unscrambled order. The
students also still confused implementing tense, from present tense to past tense and
they were seemed confused in constructing good sentences.
The researcher had revised her plan and consulted it with the collaborator. The
plan consist of several points, they are:
• Guiding and giving the students more exercises in making unscrambled
sentences from scrambled sentences.
• Reviewing more details about past tense and the researcher explaining about
regular and irregular verbs that usually used in students’ daily.
• Being more interesting in delivering the material to make the students
motivated.
• Asking the students to bring their dictionary.
c.
1)
Cycle 2
Planning the action
The researcher had revised the plan to implement on the second cycle. The
researcher should give the students more exercises in mixing words, the researcher also
explained more about past tense. Here the researcher should prepare the students’
exercises and students’ worksheet that used for test cycle 2.
2)
Implementing the action
- 1st meeting
The researcher explained clearly about recount text. Especially the
researcher explained about the generic structure of recount text, they are
orientation consist of the setting and introduction the participant, events that tell
what happened in what sequences and re-orientation as the closing of recount text
that’s the optional-closure of events. The researcher gave the example of recount
text that using in the pre-test before. In the end of explanation, the researcher gave
time to questions and answer till all of the students knew about recount text. The
students maked the sentences from present tense to past tense. The researcher
corrected the answer and explained by underlining the words that consist of
regular verbs and irregular verbs. The researcher maked some list of words that
usually used in daily and write down in the whiteboard. The researcher asked the
students to memorize the list of words, especially on the irregular type.
The researcher continued the treatment of using scrambled sentences. the
researcher gave 12 numbers of exercise write down in the whiteboard. The
researcher gave 20 minutes for the students to do these exercises, and then asked
three students to write down their answer in the whiteboard, and for the eight
numbers they wrote down the answer as volunteer. The researcher found only 3
students wrote incorrect answer.
- 2nd meeting
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 149 The researcher opened the class by reviewing the pervious study by asking
the students some question about recount text and regular-irregular verbs orally.
The researcher asked the students to prepare a piece of paper, then gave them a
copied of worksheet. The test consists of 9 numbers of scrambled sentences, using
present tense. The students asked to mix the scrambled sentences to unscrambled
order, then built 3 paragraphs from these mixing sentences. The researcher asked
the students doing the test individually. The researcher walked around the class
during the students did the test.
3)
Observation
The collaborator observed during the cycle 2 implementation. The observation
result of cycle 2 were the students seemed enjoy, did not make noisy as usual, paid
attention to the researcher explanation, and the activity ran well. The students also could
do the exercises that the researcher gave in the whiteboard then most of the students
write down the answers correctly. The researcher also observed in order to know how
far the improvement writing ability the students made in that case. The mean score of
test cycle 2 improved significantly from 57.94 in test cycle 1 to 68.83 in test cycle 2. the
mean score was passed the standart minimum score.
4)
Final reflection
After analyzing the observation result in cycle 2, the researcher and the
collaborator found some differences between the result of the action in cycle 1 and cycle
2. There were some positive results and negative result that can be explained as follows:

Positive result
- There was an improvement of students’ writing ability. It could be seen from
the result of test cycle 2 that was 68.83; it was higher than the mean score of
test cycle 1 was 57.94.
- The students still remembered the recount text and its generic structure taught
in cycle 2.
- The students were more paid attention during the teaching learning process.
- The researcher could manage action implemented on the class better than in
the first cycle. The researcher asked the students orally, it made the researcher
did not always write down in the whiteboard.
- The mean score of test cycle 2 covered the standard minimum score (KKM)
that used in MTs Negeri Surakarta 2.

Negative result
Sometimes the students tended to make noise during the teaching learning
process. Fewer students were passive than before, their score of test still low even there
was no improvement.
2.
The Result
The result of students’ writing ability shows that scrambled sentences can improve
some case of writing recount text significantly. It can be concluded by analyzing the result of
pretest, test cycle 1, and test cycle 2. The differences of the three results said that there was an
improvement of the students’ writing ability in that case.
- The students mean score improve after implemented the tests
pre test (48.24)  test cycle 1 (57.94)  test cycle 2 (68.83)

A.
Conclusion
Based on the result of the research findings, some conclusions can be drawn. First, the
students can be easily making sentences from scrambled sentences. They also improve in
building paragraphs from mixing sentences that gave in scrambled sentences. Besides, the
students’ motivation and attitude toward English lesson especially in writing get better.
Second, the result of the research shows that the use of scrambled sentences technique
improved the students ability in writing recount text. It is shown from the scores they got in
the test; both of the case of cycle 1 and cycle 2 are improve. The percentages of students’
scores had significant improvements after implementing the test. How far scrambled
sentences can improve the students’ writing ability serves as follows:
- There were from 89% students improve their scores after doing the test cycle 1 to
92% students improve their scores after doing the test cycle 2.
- After doing test cycle 1 there were only 24% students passed the standard minimum
score (KKM), it improves 78% students passed the standard minimum score after
doing test cycle 2.
B.
Implication
In teaching writing in Junior High School, it is important to implement any techniques
which can attract the students’ attention and interest. The use of appropriate technique in
conveying the materials during the teaching learning process will make the students have high
motivation and interest in joining the lesson. It can also help them to receive and understand
more materials. The use of scrambled sentences technique in teaching writing has proven in
effective way to improve the students’ writing ability in the case of recount text. The research
result shows that there are some improvements in the students’ writing ability and the students
get more concentration during the lesson. The students can built some paragraphs based on
some number of scrambled sentences given by the researcher. They were more interested,
enthusiastic, and active during the teaching learning process.
C.
Suggestions
Based on the experiences of the researcher during the action research, the researcher
proposes some suggestions for the betterment of the students’ writing ability as follows:
1.
For the teacher
a.
The teacher should know how to enhance their ability in teaching and to develop a
good atmosphere in the class, so the students learn easily and comfortably in their
class
b.
The teacher can use scrambled sentences technique as an alternative technique in
teaching writing and the teacher should be creative to use it in order to make the
students’ interest and the teaching learning process not feel bored.
2.
For the students
a.
To improve students’ writing ability, all of the students have practice writing as
much as possible.
154 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 b.
Student in general should encourage themselves to learn more, ask what they do
not know and learn as much as possible.
3.
For the institution of education
An institution of education should encourage and support the English teachers to
improve the quality of their teaching. It can be done by providing some facilities in order to
support the teaching learning process, so the teaching learning process can run effectively.
4.
For other researcher
a.
The other researcher can get valuable experience which can be used for doing a
better action research in the future.
b.
The other researcher can use this research as additional resources to conduct
research about writing.

(Kajian Struktur Sintaksis)
Oleh:
Bayu Indrayanto
PBSD-FKIP Unwidha Klaten
[email protected]
Abstrak
Verba lokatif dalam kalimat tunggal bahasa Jawa (kajian struktur sintaksis) dianalisis dari sisi
bentuk, fungsi, dan peran.Bentuk verba lokatif dalam kalimat tunggal bahasa Jawa dapat
berupa monomorfemis dan polymorfemis.Verba lokatif bahwa sifat nomina lokatif yang
mengikuti verba lokatif inheren, bersifat intrinsik; nomina lokatif yang mengikuti verba
lokatif takinheren, bersifat takintrinsik.
Kata Kunci: kalimat tunggal, verba, verba lokatif.
A.
PENGANTAR
Verba lokatif dalam bahasa Jawa mempunyai pengertian yang sama dengan dalam
bahasa Inggris, seperti yang diungkapkan oleh Chafe dalam bukunya Meaning The Structure
of Language (1970). Bahwa verba lokatif adalah verba yang mampu menghadirkan unsur
nomina tempat/lokasi di dalam suatu kalimat.
Kemampuan verba lokatif untuk menghadirkan nomina lokatif bersifat inheren dan
takinheren/eksternal.Kemampuan inheren, artinya verba itu sudah otomatis menghadirkan
nomina lokatif. Kemampuan takinheren/eksternal, artinya verba itu harus diderivasikan
dahulu untuk dapat menghadirkan nomina lokatif (Chafe, 1970 : 156).
Diungkapkan pula oleh Chafe bahwa sifat nomina lokatif yang mengikuti verba lokatif
inheren, bersifat intrinsik; nomina lokatif yang mengikuti verba lokatif takinheren, bersifat
takintrinsik.Namun demikian, ada juga nomina lokatif yang mengikuti verba lokatif inheren,
bersifat takintrinsik.Nomina lokatif intrinsik, artinya nomina tersebut bersifat ketat, jelas, dan
sudah secara eksplisit terkandung dalam verba lokatifnya.Nomina lokatif takintrensik, artinya
nomina tersebut bersifat longgar, umum (general).
Kejelasan tentang verba lokatif dan nomina lokatif yang mengikutinya dapat dilihat
pada contoh-contoh berikut.
(1) Ibu masak sayur.
‘Ibu memasak sayur’
(2) Adhik lagi adus.
‘Adik baru mandi’
Verba lokatif masak ‘memasak’ pada kalimat (1) bersifat inheren, artinya verba itu
sudah mengandung nomina lokatif, yaitu di dapur.Dengan demikian, verba tersebut tanpa
diikuti nomina lokatif pun tetap eksis sebagai verba lokatif.Selain itu, verba tersebut
membangun relasi lokatif secara intrinsik, artinya arah relasi ke dalam verba itu.
Verba adus ‘mandi’ mengandung nomina instrumen, sesuatu tempat yang digunakan
untuk mandi yaitu di kamar mandi.Dengan itu, verba lokatif tersebut bersifat inheren (jenis
nomina lokatif sudah tercermin di dalam verbanya).Akan tetapi, nomina yang mengikutinya
bersifat takintrinsik, artinya, nomina itu bersifat longgar (tidak ketat).Ketidakketatan nomina
itu ditandai dengan dapatnya bermacam-macam jenis lokatif yang mampu mengikuti
155 156 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 verbanya.Namun demikian, meskipun nomina itu bermacam-macam, jenis nomina itu masih
di dalam satu wadah kehiponiman.Dengan demikian, nomina lokatif pada kalimat (2) bersifat
takintrinsik.
Keketatan nomina lokatif yang telah tercermin (hadir) di dalam verba lokatif dapat
dilihat dengan kurang berterimanya kalimat berikut.
(1a) Ibu masak sayur ing pawon.
‘Ibu memasak sayur di dapur’
Kehadiran satuan lingual ing pawon ‘di dapur’ justru membuat kalimat tersebut menjadi
kaku dan kurang efektif. Memang, konstituen itu sebagai nomina lokatif, tetapi kehadirannya
tidak dibutuhkan karena nomina lokatif itu sudah terkandung dalam verba lokatifnya.

LANDASAN TEORI
Klasifikasi Kalimat
Kalimat dalam bahasa Jawa menurut Sudaryanto (1992 : 70-179) diklasifikasikan
menjadi tiga macam, yaitu:
(1) Kalimat Tunggal
Kalimat tunggal adalah kalimat yang terdiri atas S-P atau S-P-O saja (Sudaryanto,1992 :
68). Menurut Gorys Keraf kalimat tunggal adalah kalimat yang hanya terdiri dari dua unsur
inti dan boleh diperluas dengan satu atau lebih unsur tambahan, namun unsur-unsur tambahan
itu tidak boleh membentuk pola baru (1984: 152). Menurut Harimurti Kridalaksana, kalimat
tunggal adalah kalimat yang terjadi dari satu klausa bebas (2001: 95). Kalimat tunggal
menurut Ramlan adalah kalimat yang terdiri atas satu subjek dan satu predikat saja (2001: 43).
Contoh kalimat tunggal : Adi tuku buku ‘Adi membeli buku’.
(2) Kalimat Majemuk
Menurut Sudaryanto kalimat majemuk adalah kalimat yang terdiri atas dua klausa atau
lebih (1992 : 159). Menurut Ramlan kalimat majemuk adalah kalimat yang terdiri lebih dari
satu klausa. Kalimat majemuk terdiri dari kalimat majemuk setara dan kalimat majemuk
bertingkat (2001 : 29)
(3) Kalimat Beruas
Menurut Sudaryanto kalimat beruas adalah kalimat yang merupakan hasil
penggabungan dua klausa atau lebih namun belum dapat disebut sebagai kalimat majemuk
(1992 : 180). Kalimat beruas dibedakan menjadi beberapa jenis, yaitu :
1.
Kalimat beruas lengkap
Kalimat beruas lengkap adalah kalimat beruas yang unsurnya berupa klausa
lengkap. Kelengkapan itu tampak sebagai struktur S-P.
2.
Kalimat beruas tak lengkap
Kalimat beruas tak lengkap adalah kalimat beruas yang klausa-klausa unsurnya
berupa klausa tak lengkap. Kalimat berstruktur P-O + P-O dan P + P.
3.
Kalimat beruas puntung
Kalimat beruas puntung adalah kalimat beruas yang salah satu unsurnya berupa
klausa puntung. Klausa puntung adalah penggalan dari konstituen sebuah klausa yang
ditempatkan secara terpisah di bagian awal kalimat dan menjadi ruas tersendiri.
Ramlan (2001 : 130-136) membagi kalimat berdasarkan jenis verba yang menduduki
fungsi predikat, terdiri atas :
1.
Kalimat verbal adjektif
Kalimat ini predikatnya terdiri dari kata golongan verbal yang termasuk golongan kata
sifat, atau frase yang unsur pusatnya berupa kata sifat (2001 : 132). Contoh: Dheweke pinter
banget ‘ Dia sangat pintar’.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 157 2.
Kalimat verbal intransitif
Kalimat ini predikatnya terdiri dari kata golongan verbal yang termasuk golongan kata
kerja yang intransitif, atau terdiri dari frase verbal yang unsur pusatnya berupa kata kerja
intransitif (2001 : 133). Contoh: Ani turu ‘Ani tidur’.
3.
Kalimat verbal aktif
Kalimat ini predikatnya terdiri dari kata golongan verbal yang termasuk golongan kata
kerja yang transitif, atau terdiri dari frase verbal yang unsur pusatnya berupa kata kerja
transitif (2001 : 133). Contoh: Reni mangan roti ‘Reni makan roti’.
4.
Kalimat verbal pasif
Kalimat ini predikatnya terdiri dari kata golongan verbal yang termasuk golongan kata
kerja yang pasif, atau terdiri dari frase verbal yang unsur pusatnya berupa kata kerja pasif
(2001 : 133). Contoh: Bukune daktulisi ‘Bukunya saya tulisi’.
5.
Kalimat verbal yang refleksif
Kalimat ini predikatnya terdiri dari kata golongan verbal yang termasuk golongan kata
kerja yang refleksif (2001 : 136). Contoh: Dedi lungguh ‘Dedi duduk’.
6.
Kalimat verbal yang resiprok
Kalimat ini predikatnya terdiri dari kata golongan verbal yang termasuk golongan kata
kerja yang resiprok (2001 : 136). Contoh: Bocah loro balang-balangan watu ‘Dua anak saling
melempar batu’.
Berdasarkan klasifikasi kalimat di atas, maka dalam penelitian ini akan difokuskan pada
kalimat verbal dan kalimat tunggal. Hal ini berdasarkan bentuk verba pengisi predikat yang
terdapat pada kalimat serta banyaknya klausa yang terdapat dalam suatu kalimat.
2.
Makna
Slamet Mulyana menuturkan bahwa sebagai unit terkecil dari perbendaharaan sebuah
bahasa, kata mengandung dua aspek bentuk/ekspresi dan aspek isi/makna. Bentuk/ekspresi
adalah segi yang dapat diserap pancaindra sedangkan aspek isi/makna adalah segi yang
menimbulkan reaksi karena aspek bentuk tadi (1964 : 42). Bentuk adalah kata atau tanda
bunyi filosofis, sedangkan isi adalah reaksi yang timbul berupa gagasan. Apabila tanda
linguistik itu disamakan dengan kata maka berarti makna adalah pengertian atau konsep yang
dimiliki oleh setiap kata. Menurut Harimurti Kridalaksana makna memiliki pengertian: 1)
maksud pembicaraan; 2) pengaruh satuan bahasa dalam pemahaman persepsi atau perilaku
manusia; 3) hubungan dalam arti kesepadanan atau ketidaksepadanan antara bahasa dan alam
di luar bahasa, atau antara ujaran dan semua hal yang ditunjuknya; 4) cara menggunakan
lambang-lambang bahasa (2001 : 132).
Berdasarkan pengertian makna di atas, dapat disimpulkan bahwa makna adalah cara
menggunakan lambang bahasa yakni pengeluaran gagasan berupa pengertian yang dimiliki
oleh lambang bahasa tersebut. Pengertian yang telah dikeluarkan dapat digunakan untuk
mengetahui maksud pembicara.
Guna menunjang keperluan analisis, ada dua macam jenis makna yang diperlukan yaitu
makna leksikal dan makna gramatikal. Pengertian dari kedua makna itu sebagai berikut.
Makna Leksikal
Makna leksikal adalah makna unsur-unsur bahasa sebagai lambang benda, peristiwa,
dan lain-lain. Makna leksikal ini dipunyai unsur-unsur bahasa lepas dari penggunaannya atau
konteksnya (Harimurti Kridalaksana, 2001: 133). Menurut Abdul Chaer makna leksikal
adalah makna yang dimiliki atau ada pada leksem meski tanpa konteks apa pun, dapat juga
dikatakan bahwa makna leksikal adalah makna yang sebenarnya, makna yang sesuai dengan
hasil observasi indra atau makna apa adanya (1994 : 189). Makna lesikal menurut Sry Satriya
158 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Tjatur Wisnu Sasangka adalah makna sebuah kata ketika kata itu masih berdiri sendiri atau
ketika kata itu masih bebas (2001 : 199). Makna leksikal tidak tergantung dengan kalimat
sebab makna leksikal sebuah kata dapat dilihat dalam kamus. Berdasarkan pengertian tersebut
dapat disimpulkan bahwa makna leksikal adalah makna sebenarnya dari suatu kata ketika kata
tersebut masih berdiri sendiri dan belum terikat dengan unsur yang lain.
Makna Gramatikal
Makna gramatikal adalah hubungan antara unsur-unsur bahasa dalam satuan-satuan
yang lebih besar (Harimurti Kridalaksana, 2001 : 132). Menurut Sry Satriya Tjatur Wisnu
Sasangka, makna gramatikal adalah makna suatu kata dalam sebuah kalimat. Artinya makna
suatu kata harus dihubungkan dengan kalimatnya (2008 : 200), sedangkan makna gramatikal
menurut Abdul Chaer adalah makna suatu kata yang timbul karena adanya proses gramatikal
seperti afiksasi, reduplikasi, komposisi atau pengulangan kata. Komposisi berupa
penggabungan kata, dan kalimatisasi berupa pemakaian kata dengan kata, frase atau klausa
menjadi sebuah kalimat (1994 : 290). Berdasarkan pengertian tersebut dapat disimpulkan
bahwa makna gramatikal adalah makna suatu kata yang sudah mengalami proses gramatikal
dan terangkai dalam sebuah kalimat.
3.
Verba
Verba adalah semua kata yang menyatakan perbuatan atau laku (Gorys Keraf, 1984:
64). Verba menurut Harimurti Kridalaksana adalah kelas kata yang biasanya berfungsi
sebagai predikat yang tidak mungkin berpotensi untuk diawali dengan kata ‘lebih’ (2001 :
226). Verba menurut Soepomo Poedjosudarmo dkk. adalah jenis kata yang menunjukkan
tindakan atau perbuatan suatu makhluk (1979 : 22). Wedhawati, dkk. mendefinisikan verba
sebagai kategori kata yang menyatakan perbuatan, peristiwa atau keadaan yang secara
dominan menduduki fungsi predikat (1990 : 7). Verba menurut Ramlan adalah kata-kata pada
tataran klausa yang cenderung menduduki predikat dan pada tataran frasa dapat dinegatifkan
dengan kata ‘tidak’ (2001 : 49).
Berdasarkan beberapa pengertian di atas, dapat disimpulkan bahwa verba termasuk
kelas kata yang menyatakan perbuatan, berfungsi sebagai predikat dalam kalimat, tidak
berpotensi diawali dengan kata ‘lebih’ atau “luwih” dalam bahasa Jawa, dan dapat
dinegatifkan dengan kata ‘tidak’atau “ora” dalam bahasa Jawa.
Secara sintaktis verba adalah kategori keterangan gramatikal yang mempunyai ciri-ciri
sebagai berikut.
1.
Verba dapat diingkarkan dengan kata ’tidak’ yang sejajar dengan kata “ora”dalam
bahasa Jawa, tetapi tidak dapat diingkarkan dengan kata ’bukan’ yang sejajar
dengan kata “dudu”dalam bahasa Jawa.
2.
Verba tidak dapat berangkai dengan kata’paling’ yang sejajar dengan kata
“dhewe” dalam bahasa Jawa sebagai makna superlatif. Jadi tidak ada bentuk
seperti: ngimpi dhewe.
3.
Verba memiliki fungsi utama sebagai predikat atau inti predikat di dalam kalimat
meskipun pula mempunyai fungsi lain.
4.
Verba aksi/verba yang mengandung makna perbuatan atau tindakan tidak dapat
berangkai dengan kata yang menyatakan makna ‘kesangatan’ yang sejajar dengan
kata “banget” dalam bahasa Jawa. Jadi tidak ada bentuk seperti: mulih banget.
5.
Verba aksi dapat diikuti fungsi sintaksis keterangan yang didahului kata ‘dengan’
yang sejajar dengan kata “karo” atau “kanthi” dalam bahasa Jawa.
6.
Verba aksi dapat dijadikan bentuk perintah, sedangkan verba proses dan keadaan
tidak, misalnya: sinau ! tetapi tidak ada bentuk ngimpi ! (Ramlan, 2001: 67).
Secara morfologis verba mencakup kategori-kategori sebagai berikut.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 159 1. Kategori D dengan kemungkinan duplikasinya.
2. Kategori N-D (baik berpasangan dengan di-D maupun tidak), N-D-i, N-D-ake,
masing-masing dengan kemungkinan duplikasinya.
3. Kategori di-D, di-D-ake, di-D-i, dan kemungkinan duplikasinya.
4. Kategori tak-D, tak-D-i, tak-D-ake, tak-D-e, tak-D-ane, tak-D-ne, kok-D-i,
kok-D-ake.
5. Kategori ka-D, ka-D-an, K-D-ake, in-D, in-D-ake, dan kemungkinan
duplikasinya.
6. Kategori D-en, D-ana, D-na, dan kemungkinan duplikasinya (Edi Subroto, dkk
1994: 20).
Pada umumnya verba bahasa Jawa diklasifikasikan menjadi dua kelas, yaitu:
1.
Verba kelas I
Verba kelas I adalah verba yang terdapat dalam kategori N-D yang diperkirakan
dapat berpasangan dengan di-D. Contoh : mangan berpasangan dengan dipangan.
2.
Verba Kelas II
Verba kelas II yaitu verba yang terdapat dalam kategori N-D yang tidak dapat
berpasangan dengan di-D. Contoh: mbadhut tidak dapat berpasangan dengan *dibadhut
(Edi Subroto dkk., 1994: 22).
Berdasarkan dua klasifikasi verba tersebut, secara umum verba antipasif dapat
dimasukkan ke dalam golongan verba kelas II.

PEMBAHASAN
Pembahasan mengenai bentuk, fungsi dan peran verba lokatif dalam kalimat tunggal
bahasa Jawaakan dibahas secara besamaan. Bentuk verba lokatif berkaitan dengan bidang
morfologis yang digolongkan ke dalam bentuk monomorfemis dan polimorfemis.Fungsi dan
peran verba lokatif ada kaitannya dengan argumen yang mendampingi dalam satu bentuk
kalimat.Fungsi merupakan hubungan antara unsur-unsur bahasa dalam ujaran, sedangkan
peran merupakan hubungan predikator dengan sebuah nomina. Pada data berikut ini akan
dibahas mengenai bentuk, fungsi dan peran yang mampu ditempati verba lokatif dalam
kalimat sebagai berikut.
(3) Simbah nembe sare.
‘Simbah baru tidur.’
Verba sare ‘tidur’ mengandung nomina instrumen, sesuatu tempat yang digunakan
untuk tidur yaitu di kamar tidur.Dengan itu, verba lokatif tersebut bersifat inheren (jenis
nomina lokatif sudah tercermin di dalam verbanya).Akan tetapi, nomina yang mengikutinya
bersifat takintrinsik, artinya, nomina itu bersifat longgar (tidak ketat).Ketidakketatan nomina
itu ditandai dengan dapatnya bermacam-macam jenis lokatif yang mampu mengikuti
verbanya.Namun demikian, meskipun nomina itu bermacam-macam, jenis nomina itu masih
di dalam satu wadah kehiponiman.Dengan demikian, nomina lokatif pada kalimat (3) bersifat
takintrinsik.Verba sare ‘tidur’ pada data (3) secara morfologi berbentuk monomorfemis.
Data (3) merupakan kalimat tunggal yang mengandung verba lokatif monomorfrmis
berupa kata sare ‘tidur,’ dengan struktur kalimat:
Simbah/Nom + nembe sare/FV.
S
P
Kata simbah dalam kalimat tersebut menempati fungsi S, dan nembe sare ‘baru tidur’
menempati fungsi P. Adapun kategori yang menempati kalimat (3) adalah simbah sebagai
nomina, dan nembe sare ‘baru tidur’ berupa frase verba.Peran verba lokatif kalimat (3)
adalah refleksif.peran argumen pendamping adalah kata simbah sebagai agentif. Makna
160 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 gramatikal Simbah nembe sare adalah suatu tindakan kondisional(keadaan) yang mengenai
dan atau dimanfaatkan atau dinikmati oleh pelaku (agen).
(4) Budhe nembe tandur.
‘Budhe baru menanam (padi).’
Verba lokatif tandur ‘menanam’ pada kalimat (4) bersifat inheren, artinya verba itu
sudah mengandung nomina lokatif, yaitu di sawah.Dengan demikian, verba tersebut tanpa
diikuti nomina lokatif pun tetap eksis sebagai verba lokatif.Selain itu, verba tersebut
membangun relasi lokatif secara intrinsik, artinya arah relasi ke dalam verba itu.Verba tandur
‘menanam’ pada data (4) secara morfologi berbentuk monomorfemis.
Data (4) merupakan kalimat tunggal yang mengandung verba lokatif monomorfrmis
berupa kata tandur ‘menanam,’ dengan struktur kalimat:
Budhe/N + nembe tandur/Frase Verba.
S
P
Kata Budhe dalam kalimat tersebut menempati fungsi S, dan nembe tandur ‘baru
menanam’ menempati fungsi P. Adapun kategori yang menempati kalimat (3) adalah Budhe
sebagai nomina, dan nembetandur ‘baru menanam’ berupa frase verba. Peran verba lokatif
kalimat (4) adalah aktif.Peran argumen pendamping adalah kata Budhe sebagai agentif.
Makna gramatikal Budhe nembe tandur adalah suatu tindakan aktif yang dilakukan oleh
pelaku (agen).
(5) Saiki dheweke wis kuliyah.
‘Sekarang dia sudah bersekolah (di perguruan tinggi).’
Verba kuliyah ‘bersekolah’ mengandung nomina instrumen, sesuatu tempat yang
digunakan untuk bersekolah yaitu di sebuah perguruan tinggi.Dengan itu, verba lokatif
tersebut bersifat inheren (jenis nomina lokatif sudah tercermin di dalam verbanya).Akan
tetapi, nomina yang mengikutinya bersifat takintrinsik, artinya, nomina itu bersifat longgar
(tidak ketat).Ketidakketatan nomina itu ditandai dengan dapatnya bermacam-macam jenis
lokatif yang mampu mengikuti verbanya.Namun demikian, meskipun nomina itu bermacammacam, jenis nomina itu masih di dalam satu wadah kehiponiman.Dengan demikian, nomina
lokatif pada kalimat (5) bersifat takintrinsik.Verba kuliyah ‘bersekolah’ pada data (5) secara
morfologi berbentuk monomorfemis.
Data (5) merupakan kalimat tunggal yang mengandung verba lokatif monomorfrmis
berupa kata kuliyah ‘bersekolah,’ dengan struktur kalimat:
Saiki/Adv + dheweke/Nom +
wis kuliyah/FV.
Ket
S
P
Kata dheweke dalam kalimat tersebut menempati fungsi S, dan kuliyah ‘bersekolah’
menempati fungsi P, dan kata saiki ‘sekarang’ menempati fungsi keterangan. Adapun kategori
yang menempati kalimat (5) adalah dheweke sebagai nomina,kuliyah ‘bersekolah’ berupa
verba, dan saiki ‘sekarang berupa adverbia.Peran verba lokatif kalimat (5) adalah
refleksif.peran argumen pendamping adalah kata dheweke sebagai agentif. Makna gramatikal
saiki dheweke wis kuliyahadalah suatu tindakan kondisional (keadaan) yang mengenai dan
atau dimanfaatkan atau dinikmati oleh pelaku (agen).

SIMPULAN
Verba lokatif dalam kalimat tunggal bahasa Jawa (kajian struktur sintaksis) dapat
dianalisis dari sisi bentuk, fungsi, dan peran.Bentuk verba lokatif dalam kalimat tunggal
bahasa Jawa dapat berupa monomorfemis dan polymorfemis.Verba lokatif bahwa sifat
nomina lokatif yang mengikuti verba lokatif inheren, bersifat intrinsik; nomina lokatif yang
mengikuti verba lokatif takinheren, bersifat takintrinsik.Namun demikian, ada juga nomina
lokatif yang mengikuti verba lokatif inheren, bersifat takintrinsik.Nomina lokatif intrinsik,
artinya nomina tersebut bersifat ketat, jelas, dan sudah secara eksplisit terkandung dalam
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 161 verba lokatifnya.Kalimat yang terdapat verba lokatif kebanyakan berpola S dan P, dengan
fungsi sintaksis verba lokatif berupa predikat dengan kategori verba/frase verba.

Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta
[email protected]
ABSTRACT
This study is pragmatic study on Indonesian EFL learners in interlocutors to express giving
suggestion strategies. This study was conducted to analyze the suggestion strategies and
politeness strategies used by Indonesian EFL learners by using qualitative approach. Subjects
of this study are twenty of first semester and twenty of third semester by Indonesian EFL
learners in Java. Data for this study is taken from respondents through the Discourse
Completion Task (DCT) which consisted of nine situations with different familiarities and
social status. Respondents in each semester are asked to write the expression of giving
suggestion to complete the DCT. Their responses are collected to be analyzed based on the
suggestion strategies by Guerra and Martinetz and also to be analyzed based on the politeness
strategies by Brown and Levinson. The findings of the study show that most of the
respondents from Indonesian EFL learners utilized Direct Suggestion in the form of
performative verb and imperative, followed by Conventionalized Forms Suggestion in the
form of possibility, should, conditional, recommend, interrogative forms. The other finding
that Indonesian EFL learners utilized Bald On-Record strategies of politeness in their giving
suggestion.
Keywords: interlanguage pragmatic, suggestion strategies, politeness strategies
A.
INTRODUCTION
Interlanguage pragmatic is branch of linguistics. It is the study about the language
produced by foreign language or second language learners. If we know a lot about the
interlanguage pragmatic, we are able to detect the country of person. According to Huang
(2010:682) “Interlanguage Pragmatics theory, the two pillars of the theory of pragmatics and
second language acquisition theory are cross-cultural language learning of the study”. So,
when we learn about interlanguage pragmatic, we can know the characteristic of each regions
and countries.
The suggestion can be from family, friends, and other persons. It can happen anywhere
and any times. Many previous studies investigated about how to use suggestion strategies by
EFL/ESL learners in some countries such as Iran, Chinese, Persia, and Indonesia. Many
previous studies had investigated how to increase pragmatic competence in suggestion speech
act by EFL/ESL learners with kinds of instructions (e.g., Pishghadam & Sharafadini, 2011;
Bu, 2011; Salemi, Rabiee & Ketabi, 2012; Rajabi & Farahian, 2013; Jayantri, 2014; Gu,
2014; Farnia, Sohrabie & Sattar, 2014; Aminifard, Safaei & Askari, 2014; and Abolfathiasl &
Abdullah, 2015). Those particularly addressed whether culture, social distance in relation with
gender influences in producing the type of suggestion strategies through oral and written.
Most studies were conducted for the both of native and non-native speaker, the random
learners and the same semester.
This study aims at understanding how Indonesian EFL learners in Java region apply
suggestion strategy and politeness strategy. Knowing whether environment becomes the
162 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 163 influent produce the suggestion strategies in communication. So, the writer is very interested
in conducting research on suggestion strategy used by Indonesian EFL learners in Java
district. This study will take the first semester and the third semester students of English
Department of which university as the subjects and the title of this research is Interlanguage
Pragmatics of Suggestion by Indonesian EFL Learners.

LITERARY REVIEW
Learners learn forein language which is not first language. They face the difference with
the first language. Researching forein language is part of several specializations in
interlanguage studies. According to Kasper & Blum-Kulka (1993:3) “ILP is one of several
specializations in interlanguage studies, contrasting with interlanguage phonology,
morphology, syntax, and semantics. As a subset of pragmatics, ILP figures as a
sociolinguistic, psycholinguistic, or simply linguistic enterprise, depending on how one
defines the scope of pragmatics”. Interlanguage pragmatic is close with sociolinguistic or
psycholinguistic because of the correlation by pragmatic. Some of few researchers had
researched about interlanguage pragmatic of speech act.
The first previous study is Pishghadam & Sharafadini (2011). They investigated to
conduct a contrastive analysis between English and Persian with regard to suggestion speech
act. To this end, some Iranian university students were asked to complete a Discourse
Completion Task (DCT) consisting of six situations in which their suggestion act was
explored. The research data was analyzed using percentage and Chi-square test. The study
findings were compared with the previous research carried out by Jiang (2006) exploring
natives’ use of suggestion act in order to detect the similarities and variations between 2
cultures. The results revealed the variations in almost most of the suggestion types.
Furthermore, gender proved to be a significant factor in the production of suggestion
strategies. Finally, pedagogical implications were discussed in the context of second language
learning. The second previous study is Bu (2011). He investigated pragmatic transfer in
suggestion strategies by Chinese learners of English. The subjects of the study include ten
native English speakers, ten Chinese learners of English and ten native Chinese speakers. All
of them are university students. The classification of suggestion strategies is mainly based on
Hinkel’s study. The data is collected by means of a Discourse Completion Test questionnaire.
The Chi-square test is used to compare frequencies of the use of suggestion strategies by the
native English group, by the Chinese learner of English group and by the native Chinese
group. Results indicate that although all three groups use opting out suggestion strategies the
most frequently and direct suggestion strategies the least frequently, the Chinese learner of
English group displays direct suggestion strategies and hedged suggestion strategies more
frequently than the native English group. Such pragmatic transfer is transferred from Chinese
culture and teaching induced errors respectively, which provides pedagogical implications for
both language teachers and language learners. The third previous study is Jayantri (2014).
She investigated the pragmalinguistic forms used in the suggestion and to describe the
differences of strategies suggestions both by fourth semester female and male students of
English Department Muhammadiyah University in the speaking class 2011. This study uses
descriptive qualitative method. The data are the written text of suggestion utterances used in
the speaking class 2011. The data of both pragmalinguistic forms were analyzed by MartinezFlor and the differences of strategies suggestions were analyzed by Martinez-Flor. The
technique of data collection are Observation in the Speaking Class, Recording the data of
using DCT, Interview of the data, Classifying Suggestion the DCT of English Department of
UMS. The research finding showed that there are eight kinds of suggestion utterance: direct
performative verb, direct noun of suggestion, conventionalized forms possibility/probability,
164 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 conventionalized forms should, conventionalized forms conditional, indirect impersonal,
hints, and certain modals and semi-modals used in the speaking class.
The similarities between this study and the previous study are how use of suggestion
strategies by EFL learners. The writer focus on the variety of suggestion strategies by EFL
learners. The difference between this research and the previous studies are from the subjects
are involved. The writer in this research uses the first semester and the third semester in
English Department. The location of subject is in the Java region of Indonesia. The title of
this study isInterlanguage Pragmatics of Suggestion by Indonesian EFL Learners.
Pragmatics is branch of linguistics which is concern the meaning based on the context.
Pragmatics studies how people understand and produce a communicative act or speech act in
a situation which is generally a conversation. It is the way in appreciate everybody because
people have different words to deliver their think in the same understanding. Pragmatic data
consist of utterances. According to Yule (1996:3) stated that “pragmatics is concerned with
the study of meaning as communicated by a speaker or writer and interpreted by a listener or
reader”. When we communication of course involving between speaker and listener and they
are able to understand each other if they know the meaning utterance or sentences in
communication.Pragmalinguistics is part of pragmatics, so pragmalinguistics and pragmatics
are connected each other. According to Leech in Archer (2005:4) is aware that “specific
pragmatic descriptions ultimately have to be relative to specific social conditions”. According
to Leech in Fauziati (2009: 210) “proposes two further pragmatic systems.”
Pragmalinguistics, which accounts for the more linguistic end of pragmatics, a particular
resource which a given language provides for conveying particular illocutions and
Sociopragmatics which studies the more specific ‘local’ condition of language use. Pragmatic
system has two features, they are pragmalinguistics and sociopragmatics. So,
pragmalinguistics and sociolinguistics have correlation in making pragmatics.
Everyday in our life, we need communication so we are called social human. According
to Rickheit (2008:1) “communicative competence is fundamental for a successful life in our
society as it is of great importance for all areas of life”. Communication can happen in verbal
and non-verbal. The communication well can occur if we have knowledge or capability in
communication. Pragmatic competence is the ability to make use of a variety of language
functions. We can certainly define the appropriate use of language in different situation. So,
we have to say something based on the situation itself. According Chomsky in Ifantidou
(2014:2) “pragmatic competences is the characterizes as knowledge of the conditions,
appropriate manner and purposes of language use, due to which communicators can relate
intentions and purposes to the linguistic means at hand”.
Interlanguage is nonnative speakers when they use a foreign language in their second
language. There are different ways of nonnative speakers when using a foreign language
compared to the native speaker itself. According to Kasper & Blum-Kulka (1993: 196)
“interlanguage pragmatics is concerned with the ways in which nonnatives do things with
words in a second language. The phenomena investigated from this perspective may relate to
both pragmatic and discourse knowledge”. When we talk about interlanguage, it can be
related to both pragmatic and discourse knowledge. Speech act can be classified in three
categories. There are locutionary act, illocutionary act, and perlocutionary act. The description
of the category speech act is based from Austin and Searle. In utterances have the goal and the
function. Base on the goal of utterance we can use speech act. The term speech act was made
by Austin (1962) and developed by Searle (1969). Austin makes between three kinds of
speech act, there are: “Locutionary act, it is performing the act of saying something. The
example is he said to me ‘Shoot her!’ meaning by ‘shoot’ shoot and referring by ‘her’ to her.
Illocutionary act, it is performing an act in saying something. The example is he urged (or
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 165 advised, ordered) me to shoot her. Perlocutionary act, it is performing an act by saying
something. The example is he persuaded me to shoot her.
There are kinds of the speech act of suggestion according to Guerra and Martinez study
(2006) with four categories there are Direct Suggestion, Formalized Forms; Indirect
Suggestion; and Non-Conventionalized Forms. Categories of Direct Suggestionsare divided
into Performative Verb with example is “I suggest that you” and Imperative with example
“trying using…”. Category of Conventionalized Forms are divided into Interrogative Forms,
Possibility, Should, Conditional, Need, and Recommend. Category of Indirect Suggestions is
divided into Impersonal. Category of Non-Conventionalized Forms are divided into Inclusive
‘we’, Other Formulae such as Obligation, Likes and Dislikes, Just Giving Suggestion without
using any structure, and Not Giving a Suggestion. Brown and Levinson agree with Lakeoff
that the foremost aim of politeness is avoiding conflict. The politeness has the goal to give
care and respect each other.
Brown and Levinson sum up human politeness behaviour in four strategies: bald on
record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record-indirect strategy (Brown and
Levinson, 1987:92).The bald on-record strategy does nothing to minimize threats to the
hearer's “face”. There are two strategies; those are cases of non-minimization of the face
threat and cases of FTA-oriented bald-on-record-usage. The positive politeness strategy
shows you recognize that your hearer has a face to be respected. It also confirms that the
relationship is friendly and expresses group reciprocity.According to Brown and Levinson
(1987: 103-129), there are fifteen strategies can be used to express positive politeness. The
negative politeness strategy recognizes the hearer's face.Negative politeness is redressive
action addressed to the H’s negative face, i.e., his want to have his freedom of action
unhindered and his action unimpeded. Brown and Levinson (1987) regard negative politeness
as the heart of respect behaviour, performing the function of minimizing the particular
imposition that the FTA unavoidably effects.According to Brown and Levinson (1987),
negative politeness are divided into five strategies: be direct, don’t presume, don’t coerce
hearer, communicate speaker’s want to not impinge on hearer, redress other wants of
hearer’s.Off-record indirect strategies take some of the pressure off. According to Brown &
Levinson (1987:211), the last strategy of politeness is off record indirect strategies. If a
speaker wants to do an FTA, but wants to avoid the responsibility for doing it, he can do it off
record and leave it up to the addressee to decide how to interpret it. Off record more indicated
to ‘indirect speech’. Off record strategy consist of two main strategies, there are invite
conversational implicature and be vague or ambiguous.

RESEARCH METHOD
The approach this research is a qualitative method with the type of survey. This type of
research is chosen because the data are one of social phenomena that is language usage. In
this research, the writer collects the data of suggestion strategy by Indonesian EFL learners.
This research has function to know how Indonesia EFL learners understanding. A research
includes research questions, data collection, analysis, interpretation and report writing.
According to Creswell (2007:6) “The research follows the basic process of research such as
introduction, questions, methods of data collection and analysis”. The object of this research
is suggestion strategies and politeness strategies were used in written expression used by
Indonesian EFL learners. The subjects of this research are Indonesian EFL learners in Java.
The number of this subject is forty persons. They are twenty persons of first semester and
twenty persons of third semester of English department on Muhammadiyah University of
Surakarta. The data of the research are written data of the suggestion strategies and politeness
strategies used by Indonesian EFL learners. The data source is taken from the result of
166 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 discourse completion tasks (DCTs) that included the suggestion strategies and politeness
strategies done by Indonesian EFL learners. The data were collected by DCTs. The data were
collected from EFL Indonesian learners in Java. Researcher made DCTs in short written
description of scenarios. The DCTs is completed with some instructions how the learners or
the informants should give their answers. The learners were asked to write the suggestion
sentences what he or she would say, based on the provided situations (Brown, 2001). Adding
the social situations in DCTs are controlled, expected the instrument is capable of bring out
responses that reflect social status and other contextual variables (Kwon, 2004). Technique of
Analyzing Data is after gathering the data, the writer analyzed the data by doing some steps,
as follows: the first is giving code to the data. The writer gives the code that consisted of
describing from Discourse Completion Test/ Semester/ Number of the Sentence/ Using
Suggestion Strategy;the second is finding out suggestion strategies are used by Indonesian
EFL learners in different semesters used the type of suggestion strategies based on Guerra and
Martinez’s theory; the third is detecting politeness in the use of suggestion Indonesian EFL
learners based on by Brown and Levinson’s theory; and the last is drawing conclusion.

RESEARCH FINDING AND DISCUSSION
Suggestion Strategies Conducted by Indonesian EFL Learners in the different
Semesters
The suggestion strategies conducted by Indonesian EFL learners in the different
semesters. The data of suggestion strategies were analyzed using the theory of suggestion
strategy by Guerra and Martinez.
The first situation (DCT1)
The first DCT was equal status in working place. The learners acted as worker in a work
place that they have a close friend. The situation was you giving a suggestion to a close friend
who has condition is not being healthy in the work day and the same time your close friend
has wedding invitation. Participants of Indonesian EFL learners came from the first semester
and the third semester.
The first DCT, the writer founded the different variation of the first semester used four
categories of suggestion strategies consisted of DS, CFS, NCFS, and InS while the third
semester used three categories of suggestion strategies consisted of DS, CFS and NCFS. The
first semester used Direct Suggestion (DS) 75% almost similar learners of the third semester
used Direct Suggestion (DS) 60%, Conventionalized Forms Suggestion (CFS) 15% by the
first semester less than Conventionalized Forms Suggestion (CFS) 35% by the third semester,
Indirect Suggestion (InS) 5% by the first semester but the third semester did not use it, and
Non-Conventionalized Forms Suggestion (NCFS) 5% by the both semester. The most
category of suggestion strategies was DS by the both semester, followed CFS and the least
category of suggestion strategies was NCFS and InS. It could be seen the following as:

Based on the chart 1 and examples above, the writer founded sameness and difference
that learners of the first semester used four categories of suggestion, there were DS, CFS, InS,
and NCFS with six strategies while learners of the third semester used three categories of
suggestion, there were DS, CFS, and NCFS with six strategies. The first semester and the
third semester used strategies of DS which consisted of It and PV. The first semester used
strategies of CFS which consisted of C and P while the third semester used strategies of CFS
consisted of IF, R, and S. The first semester used strategy of InS was impersonal but the third
semester did not use it. Then, the first semester and the third semester used strategy of NCFS

Politeness Strategies Conducted by Indonesian EFL Learners in the different
Semesters
The politeness strategies conducted by Indonesian EFL learners in the different
semesters. They from different semester who consisted of the first semester and the third
semester in university. The data were analyzed using the theory of politeness strategy by
Brown and Levinson. There are four major categories of politeness strategies. There are bald
on record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record-indirect strategy (Brown &
Levinson, 1987:92).
The first situation (DCT1)
The first DCT was equal status in working place. The learners acted as worker that they
have a close friend. The situation was you giving a suggestion to a close friend who has
condition is not being healthy in the work day and the same time your close friend has
wedding invitation.
The first DCT, writer founded participants of Indonesian EFL learners who consisted of
the first semester and the third semester used some politeness strategies in giving a
suggestion. Some of them used suggestion strategies which sameness and difference in DCT
1. The writer founded politeness of the first semester used Bald on-Record (BOR) 45%,
Negative Politeness (NP) 30%, Off-Record Indirect (ORI) and Combination Strategy (CS)
20% while the third semester used Bald on-Record (BOR) 85% and Combination Strategy
(CS) 15% .
a)
Bald On-Record (BOR)
(DCT1/ST1/05/BOR) I suggest you to take rest in home and I will inform
your boss that you are not able to come.
(DCT1/ST3/01/BOR) I suggest you go to your friend’s wedding party and I
will tell CEO that you are in bad condition now.
The examples above were taken from the first semester and the third semester.
The examples above used the first politeness strategy from Brown and Levinson’s
theory. It was Bald On-Record (BOR) which was included in cases of FTA-oriented
bald on-record-usage. Those examples indicated the offers expression in imperative
with saying “I suggest you to take rest in home” and “I suggest you go to your friend’s
wedding party”. The two examples of “I suggest” had sameness in applied BOR with
subject adding imperative.
b)
Negative Politeness (NP)
(DCT1/ST1/04/NP) You have obligation in our job place, soif you finished
your job you can go to your friend marriage but if you
not finished it yet, you have to finished it first.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 169 The example above was taken from the first semester in DCT 1 but the third
semester did not use it in DCT 1. The example above used the third politeness strategy
from Brown and Levinson’s theory. It was Negative Politeness (NP) with said “if you
finished your job you can go to your friend marriage”. The example above indicated
tentative consisted of the use of the subjunctive and the use of remote possibility
markers where it don’t coerce hearer. But, learners of the third semester did not use
negative politeness strategy in DCT 1.
c)
Off-Record Indirect (ORI)
(DCT1/ST1/02/ORI) It’s better if you not come to the wedding and rest in
home.
The example above was included of the fourth politeness strategy. It was OffRecord Indirect (ORI) from Brown and Levinson’s theory. It indicated ORI when
speaker said “It’s better if you not come to the wedding”. Speaker said “it’s better”
indicated give hints of ORI that giving association clue where speaker gives a related
kind of implicature triggered by mentioning something associated with the act required
of hearer. But, learners of the third semester did not use off-record indirect in DCT 1.
d)
Combination Strategy (CS)
(DCT1/ST1/07/CS)
Rohim I give you a suggest to take a rest until you feel
better and forgot all and ask forgive to your friends.
(DCT1/ST3/13/CS)
Naila I give suggestion that you should go to doctor
first. Your healthy is number one and it’s better if you
contact your friend that you can’t come, your friend of
course will understand you.
The examples above were taken from the first semester and the third semester.
The examples above included combination strategy. The combination strategy consisted
of Positive Politeness (PP) and Bald On-Record (BOR) where the two strategies from
Brown and Levinson’s theory. The first strategy used markers such as address forms
and ellipsis liked examples above “Rohim and Naila” who indicated positive politeness
and the second strategy indicated offers expressions in imperative of cases of FTAoriented bald on-record-usage by said “I give you a suggest to take a rest until you feel
better” and “I give suggestion that you should go to doctor first” which used BOR of
politeness strategy.
Guerra and Martinez study (2006) divided suggestion strategies into four categories,
there are direct suggestion, conventionalized forms, indirect suggestion, and nonconventionalized forms. In those four categories divided into fourteen strategies, there are
performative verb, imperative, interrogative forms, possibility, should, conditional, need,
recommend, impersonal, using ‘we’, obligation, likes and dislikes, just giving suggestion
without using any structure, and not giving a suggestion. Based on these data, the writer
founded 20 data learners of the first semester and 20 data learners of the third semester. The
total of the two groups was 40 data. The writer founded that two groups of learners used nine
suggestion strategies, there are performative verb, imperative, interrogative forms, possibility,
should, conditional, recommend, impersonal, and obligation. And other founded was
Indonesian EFL learners influenced Bald On-Record of politeness strategies in giving a
suggestion.
The writer founded learners of the first semester used Direct Suggestion (DS) 75%,
Conventionalized Forms (CF) 15, Indirect Suggestion (InS) 5%, and Non-Conventionalized
Forms (NCF) 5% while learners of the third semester used Direct Suggestion (DS) 60%,
Conventionalized Forms (CF) 35%, and Non-Conventionalized Forms (NCF) 5%. Based on
finding and analyzing was known that learners of the first semester and learners of the third
170 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 semester used the most strategies was performative verb and imperative of direct suggestion.
The other suggestion strategies frequently used of the two groups was interrogative forms,
possibility, should, conditional, and recommend of conventionalized forms. The least
suggestion strategies which were used non-conventionalized forms was obligation and
Indirect suggestion was impersonal.
Respondents of the first semester and third semester were from Indonesian, especially in
Java region. This Java region had rule environment, so giving suggestion could influenced the
rule. The rule was called “sopan santun”. Learners of the first semester and learners of the
third semester used addressee based on sociopolitical and status which was influenced with
rule of sopan santun in Java. Some of respondents or learners used addressee when gave a
suggestion to other person. Learners of the first and learners of the third semester were
influenced of politeness in gave a suggestion. They were influenced the most of politeness
strategies in giving a suggestion was Bald On-Record (BOR).
E.
CONCLUSION
Indonesian EFL learners which consisted of learners of the first semester and learners of
the third semester used some strategies in giving a suggestion and they were influenced of
politeness when giving a suggestion. They used the most suggestion strategies were
performative verb and imperative of direct suggestion and influenced politeness strategies
which the most was Bald On-record.

ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menunjukan bahwa karya sastra bukan sekedar karya imajenitif
melainkan alat yang digunakan oleh pengarang untuk mengkritik dan merespon kejadian yang
terjadi dimasyarakat. Pada penelitian ini, penulis berfokus pada ketidaksantunan berbahasa
yang digunakan oleh tokoh-tokoh pada novel trilogiThe Hunger Games. Ketidaksantunan
disini merupakan ketidaksantunan tokoh dalam karya sastra sebagai materi autentik
pembentukan karakter. Peran pengarang cerita yang dalam hal ini adalah Suzanne Collins
merupakan pusat dari komunikasi interpersonal antar pembaca. Sumber data pada penelitian
ini adalah ujaran tokoh dalam novel trilogi The Hunger Games.Pada akhirnya dengan
menggunakan metodedeskriptif kualitatif penulis meneliti data yang berupaketidaksantunan
tindak tutur tokoh.Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa novel The Hunger Games, tidak hanya
karya sastra semata, melainkan sebagai kritik atas dominasi penguasa dalam mengendalikan
media untuk mempengaruhi pola pikir masyarakat.
Kata kunci: ketidaksantunan berbahasa, dominasi, ancaman, media
PENDAHULUAN
Novel trilogy The Hunger Games karya Suzanne Collins (2008) merupakan novel fiksi
ilmiah dengan sudut pandang seorang gadis berusia 16 tahun, Katniss Everdeen yang tinggal
disebuah distrik termiskin, distrik 12 dinegara Panem. Capitol merupakan ibukota negara
tersebut yang memegang kendali penuh atas seluruh sektor negara. The Hunger Games adalah
acara tahunan yang diadakan pemerintah Panem untuk mengingat peristiwa pemberontakan
yang pernah dilakukan distrik 13 terhadap pemerintah beberapa puluhan tahun yang lalu.
Acara tahunan tersebut digunakan pemerintah untuk mengingatkan seluruh distrik bahwa
tidak ada pengampunan sedikitpun bagi pemberontak. Untuk kepentingan tersebut,
pemerintah setiap tahunnya mengadakan The Hunger Games, dimana setiap distrik harus
mengirmkan dua perwakilannya berusia antara 12-18 tahun untuk bertarung dan membunuh
peserta dari distrik lain. Pertarungan mematikan tersebut disiarkan 24 jam non stop secara
langsung melalui media televisi diseluruh distrik. Dalam novel tersebut jelas terlihat bahwa
pegarang selalu melibatkan media terutama televisi untuk membangun karakter penokohan,
yang mana hal tersebut menjadi alasan utama pemilihan novel trilogi The Hunger Games
sebagai objek kajian penelitian.Bahwa novel ini muncul ditengah-tengah konflik dan krisis
dinegara timur tengah, yang dalam faktanya mereka sering kali menggunakan media sebagi
alat untuk mempengaruhi masa.
Gaya bahasa dari penulis merupakan suatu kekhasan dari gaya pengarang dalam
mengemukakan ide cerita. Bahasa dalam karya sastra memiliki irasional, asosiasi dan ekspresi
untuk memberikan efek tertentu bagi pembaca seperti mempengaruhi, maupun mengubah
sikap (Wellek dan Warren, 1949). Dalam karya sastra, ketidaksantunan berbahasa sering kali
ditemukan. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan banyaknya penelitian tentang ketidak santunan dalam
172 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 173 berbahasa dengan sumber data yang bervariasi. Beberapa peneliti menggunakan data yang
bersumber pada acara televisi seperti talk-show (Sosiowati, 2013), quiz (Culpeper, 2005),
berita (Pillar, 2009), maupun sinetron remaja (Wijayanto, 2014). Sedangkan yang lainnya
menggunakan karya sastra seperti drama (Rudanko, 2006) dan novel (Handayani, 2009;
Shintalia, 2009; Wulandari, 2014). Namun demikian, berbagai penelitian tersebut berfokus
pada perspektif linguistik.
Wellek dan Warren (1949) mengungkapkan bahwa karya sastra tidak hanya dapat dikaji
denan menggunakan pendekatan intrinsik yang menekankan keterkaitan antar unsur internal
dalam sebuah karya sastra, namun sebuah karya sastra dapat dikaji dengan menggunakan
pendekatan ekstrinsik yaitu dengan mengaitkan unsur-unsur eksternal diluar karya sastra itu
sendiri.Hal tersebut diaplikasikan oleh Thoyibi (2014) ketika mengkaji The Escaped Cock
karya D.H Lawrence. Swingewood dan Laurenson (1972) menjelaskan bahwa pengarang
dalam karya sastranya memiliki kekhasan gaya berbahasa, dan hal tersebut tidak dapat
dipisahkan dari gagasan utama yang ingin disapaikan kepada pembaca, sebagai tanggapan
pengarang terhadap keadaan yang terjadi dilingkungan sekitar. Dalam penelitian ini saya
menempatkan karya sastra bukan hanya sekedar buah fikiran atau imajenasi dari pengarang
semata, melainkan alat bagi pengarang untuk menyampaikan gagasannya pada masyarakat
luas.
Ketidaksantunan
Berdasarkan tujuannya ketidaksantunan digunakan dengan sengaja untuk merusak muka
mitra tutur (Culpeper, 1996). Sedangkan pengertian ketidaksantunan adalah situasi dimana
ketika prinsip-prinsip menjaga wajah mitra tutur dilanggar sehingga mengancam wajah mitra
tutur (face threatening act) (Brown and Levinson, 1987). Dalam hal ini Culpeper (1996)
menjelaskan beberapa faktor yang mempengaruhi ketidaksantunan, yaitu faktor hubungan
sosial penutur dan mitra tutur, faktor kekuatan sosial, dan yang terakhir adalah faktor
kesengajaan dari penutur.Pillar (2009) memberikan definisi yang berbeda terhadap pengertian
ketidaksantunan,ketidaksantunan tidak selalu dikaitkan dengan ‘wajah’mitra tutur melainakan
dengan ‘identitas’, sehingga pengertian ketidaksantunan memiliki arti yang lebih luas. Dalam
karya sastra, pengarang merupakan penutur dan pembaca memiliki posisi sebagai mitra tutur,
yang dalam prosesnya pembaca tidak berinteraksi secara langsung dengan pengarang. Pada
akhirnya, didalam penelitian ini ketidaksantunan digambarkan sebagai ‘strategi pengarang
untuk mengkritik dominasi penguasa dalam mengendalikan media’.
METODE PENELITIAN
Dalam penelitian ini penulis mengunakan metode deskriptif qualiatif untuk
mendskripsikan ketidaksantunan yang digunakan oleh tokoh-tokoh dalam novel trilogi The
Hungger Games karya Suzanne Collins. Ketidaksantunan yang menjadi objek penelitian ini
adalah situasi dan penggunaan ujaran untuk mengekspresikan tindakan tertentu seperti
mengancam, memaki, mempengaruhi dll yang sengaja digunakan pengarang sebagai strategi
untuk mengkritik dominasi kelompok tertentu. Sumber data adalah novel trilogi The Hungger
Games yang meliputi seri pertama The Hunger Games (2008), Catching fire (2009), dan seri
terakhirnya Mocking Jay(2010).
PEMBAHASAN
Kritik Terhadap Dominasi Penguasa dalam Mengendalikan Media
Ketidak santunan dalam novel trilogi The Hunger Games diungkapkan dalam bentuk
kritik terhadap penguasa dalam mengendalikan media. Kritik ini diarahkan pada isu politik
174 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 serta konflik yang terjadi dibeberapa negara dibelahan dunia, bahwa penguasa mampu
mengendalikan media sehingga kontroling terhadap pola fikir masyarakat dapat dipengaruhi,
antara lain doktrinasi ketidakberdayaan, pencitraan, ancaman dan ajakan.
Doktrinasi Ketidakberdayaan
Dalam tataran kehidupan bermasyarakat, benar dan salah adalah suatu hal yang sangat
berbeda. Jika pembunuhan dianggap sebuah tindakan yang salah, penindasan dan pemerasan
adalah sesuatu hal yang keliru maka sudah selayaknya pelaku tersebut mendapatkan sanksi.
Namun bagaimana jika pelaku tersebut adalah sekumpulan kelompok yang memiliki
kekuasaan. Apakah perkara benar dan salah bisa diputuskan dengan mudah? Atau justru
pelaku berusaha memutarbalikan fakta dengan menggunakan dalih tertentu?
Dalam novel ini, Suzanne Collin merespon gejala sosial yang terjadi dengan
memberikan gambaran yang sangat kongkrit. Collin mengambarkan penguasa mampu
memutarbalikan fakta bukan dengan memberikan alasan atau penjelasan semu, melainkan
menggunakan doktrinasi ketidakberdayaan.
Mengambil anak-anak dari distrik kami, memaksa mereka untuk saling
membunuh sementara kami menontonnya- ini adalah cara Capitol untuk
mengingatkan kami betapa sesungguhnya kami berada dibawah belas kasihan
mereka. Betapa kecil kemungkinan kami bisa selamat jika timbul pemberontakan
lain. Apapun kata-kata yang mereka gunakan, pesan yang mereka sampaikan
jelas. “Lihat bagaimana kami mengambil anak-anakmu dan mengorbankan
mereka, dan tak ada yang bisa kau lakukan untuk menghalanginya. Kalau kau
sampai berani mengangkat satu jari saja, kamiakan menghancurkan semuanya.
Sebagaimana yang kami lakukan di Distrik Tiga Belas”. (The Hungger Games,
hal 26)
Pada seri kedua, Cathing fire. Collin semakin mempertajam penggambaran bahwa efek
doktrinasi ini mampu membuat masyarakat hilang harapan sehingga mereka menerima
apapun yang dilakukan pihak penguasa.
Para peserta laki-laki dan perempuan akan dipilih dari nama-nama pemenang
yang masih hidup. Kami adalah perwujudan harapan ketika tidak ada lagi
harapan. Kini 23 diantara kami akan dibunuh untuk menunjukan bahwa
harapanpun hanya ilusi. (Catching Fire, hal 194)
Collin menggambarkan bagaimana penguasa mengendalikan media untuk menanamkan
perasaan tidak berdaya, sehingga mampu mematahkan mana yang benar dan mana yang salah.
Pencitraan
Media sering kali dijadikan sebagai alat pencitraan terhadap tokoh masyarakat. Mulai
dari gaya berbicara, gaya berbusana, sikap dan semua hal pendukung yang berkaitan. Bahkan
pada tingkat penguasa sekalipun, pencitraan ini sangat diperlukan sebagai salah satu alat
perlindungan diri. Dalam novel ini, Collin menyajikan gambaran bagaimana penguasa dan
orang yang berkepentingan, menggunakan media untuk membentuk citra dirinya dihadapan
masyarakat.
Wajahku menampilkan senyum lebar, dan aku mulai berjalan kearah Peeta. Lalu,
seakan aku tidak bisa menunggu sedetik lebih lama lagi, aku mulai berlari. Peeta
menangkapku dan memutar tubuhku dan kemudian dia terpeleset-Peeta masih
belum menguasai betul kaki palsunya-kami pun terjatuh disalju, tubuhku berada
diatas tubuh Peeta, dan saat itulah kami berciuman pertama kali setelah
berbulan-bulan. Ciuman itu penuh bulu, kepingan salju, dan lipstik, tapi dibalik
semua itu aku bisa merasakan kemantapan yang dibawa Peeta terhadap
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 175 segalanya. Dan aku tahu aku tidak sendirian. Seburuk apapun aku menyakitinya,
Peeta takkan membukakan rahasiaku di depan kamera. (Catching Fire, hal 52)
Collin dengan tegas menggambarkan bahwa dalam mempengaruhi pola fikir
masyarakat, penguasa membutuhkan ‘boneka’ yang selalu siap untuk dipamerkan ke
masyarakat. Tujuannya adalah satu, dengan ‘boneka’ ini masyarakat akan semakin percaya.
Kau dan Peeta akan menjadi mentor sekarang, setiap tahun dan seterusnya. Dan
setiap tahun mereka akan menyiarkan kembali hubungan asmara kalian dan
menyiarkan detail kehidupan pribadi kalian ke publik, dan kau tidak bisa
melakukan apapun selain hidup bersama selamanya denga anak lelaki
itu.”(Catching Fire, hal 54)
Malam pertunanganku, malam ketika Peeta berlutut dan menyatakan cinta
abadinya untukku di depan semua kamera di Capitol. (Catching Fire, hal 161)
Bahkan dibagian kelima belas Catching Fire, Collin memberikan hasil efektif dari
pencitraan media. Bahwa masyarakat akan lebih peduli dan simpati kepada orang yang sering
kali keluar dilayar televisi.
Tapi mengetahui apa yang dirasakan warga Capitol terhadap kami seakan-akan
menyibakan suatu tabir rahasia. Mereka jelas tidak punya masalah menonton
anak-anak dibunuh setiap tahun. Tapi mungkin mereka terlalu banyak, terutama
mereka yang sudah menjadi selebriti selama bertahun-tahun, untuk melupakan
bahwa kami manusia. Kali ini lebih seperti melihat sahabat-sahabatmu mati.
(Catching Fire, hal224)
Setidak pedulinya masyarakat sekalipun akan lebih empati terhadap mereka yang
memiliki pencitraan diri. Seseorang yang memeliki pencitraan diri secara baik dimata
masyarakat, ucapannya akan dengan mudah diterima dan diikuti. Dengan kata lain,
masyarakat akan tunduk terhadap tokoh tersebut,efek inilah yang sejatinya dibidik oleh para
penguasa.
Ancaman dan Ajakan
Dewasa ini peran media tidak hanya sebagai sumber informasi, melainkan sebagai alat
untuk mengintimidasi atau mengancam kelompok tertentu. Terlebih lagi didaerah yang tengah
terjadi sengketa atau konflik, para penguasa dengan sengaja menggunakan media untuk
mengancam atau mengajak pihak tertentu untuk terlibat. Perlu diketahui, novel trilogi ini
dirilis ketika konflik dibeberapa negara timur tengah meletus. Bahwa beberapa penguasa atau
kelompok tertentu menggunakan rekaman sebagai alat untuk menteror atau mengancam pihak
tertentu. Dan dilain sisi, beberapa kelompok lain menggunakan media untuk mengajak
masyarakat bergabung kedalam kelompok mereka.
Merespon kejadian tersebut dalam seri terakhir The Hunger Games, Mockingjay,
Collins menggambarkan kedua belah pihak yang bersengketa yaitu pemerintahan Capitol dan
pemberontak Distrik Tiga Belas saling menggunakan media untuk melancarkan aksi
propaganda.
“Katniss”, katanya, “Presiden Snow baru saja menayangkan pengeboman tadi
secara langsung. Kemudian dia tampil dan mengatakan ini caranya untuk
mengirim pesan kepada para pemberontak. Bagaimana denganmu. Kau ingin
mengatakan sesuatu pada pemberontak?. (Mockingjay, hal 113)
Jelas sekali terlihat bahwa Collin mengkritik pihak penguasa khususnya dalam masa
konflik, sering kali menggunakan media untuk mengancam pihak tertentu. Bahkan lebih jauh
lagi, perang media tersebut mampu memicu konflik yang lebih besar.
Para juru kamera memberiku panggung, tapi aku tetap memusatkan perhatian
pada lampu merah. “Aku ingin memberi tahu kepada pemberontak bahwa aku
masih hidup. Aku ada disini di Distrik Delapan, Capitol baru saja mengebom
176 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 rumah sakit yang penuh dengan lelaki, perempuan dan anak-anak tak bersenjata.
Takkan ada korban selamat. Aku ingin memberitahu orang-orang bahwa jika ada
yang berfikir Capitol akan memperlakukan kita dengan adil dengan adanya
genjatan senjata, kau pasti bermimpi. Karena kau tahu siapa mereka dan apa
yang mereka lakukan.” Kedua tangaku terangkat, seakan ingin memperlihatkan
seluruh kengerian disekelilingku. “Inilah yang mereka lakukan! Dan kita harus
melawan balik!.” “Api sudah tersulut! Dan jika kami terbakar, kau terbakar
bersama kami!”(Mockingjay, hal 113)
Dikalangan penguasa, peran media sangatlah penting. Bagi siapa yang menguasai media
maka dia akan mampu berkuasa. Dan bagi penguasa, media adalah alat pengaabadi
kekuasaan. Bahwa dengan mengendalikan media, penguasa mampu menggalang sekaligus
mengancam masa, begitulah yang ingin digambarkan Collin pada seri terakhir The Hunger
Games.
SIMPULAN
Berdasarkan uraian diatas dapat diambil simpulan bahwa Suzanne Collins secara
sengaja melakukan ketidaksantunan sebagai pilihan gaya didalam mengungkapkan pesan atau
gagasan. Ketidaksantunan tersebut berupa situasi dan ungkapan – ungkapan yang dapat
mengusik ketenangan pembaca, terutama kalangan penguasa yang memiliki kemampuan
mengendalikan media masa. Ketidaksantunan dalam novel trilogi The Hunger Games
merupakan strategi Suzanne Collin untuk menyuarakan kritiknya terhadap isu-isu sosial dan
politik yang tengah terjadi dibeberapa negara, bahwa beberapa penguasa seringkali
menggunakan media untuk mempengaruhi pola pikir masyarakat. Karya sastra itu sendiri,
dapat menjadi alat bagi pengarang untuk menjaga atau menyerang kelompok tertentu.

Abstrak
Walaupun kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa Indonesia begitu utama dalam kehidupan
berbangsa dan bernegara, perkembangan pelajaran bahasa Indonesia dalam ranah
pendidikan belum banyak tersentuh oleh kemajuan teknologi pembelajaran. Pelajaran bahasa
Indonesia pada hakikatnya adalah belajar berkomunikasi. Sebagai pelajaran yang berkonteks
‘bahasa’, pelajaran bahasa Indonesia mempunyai kompetensi yang cukup kompleks antara
lain menyimak, berbicara, membaca, dan menulis. Proses pengajaran bahasa Indonesia di
sekolah tidak berubah secara signifikan dari waktu ke waktu. Proses pengajaran bahasa
Indonesia di sekolah umumnya masih berbasis pada tulisan/teks dan belum menggunakan
sarana multimedia untuk lebih mendukung efektivitas daya tangkap peserta didik. Selama ini
kompetensi menyimak (mendengarkan dan memahami suatu bacaan/cerita) belum dapat
dilakukan secara efektif mengingat keterbatasan alat dan kemampuan guru. Penggunaan
teknologi komputer memungkinkan proses penilaian yang tidak dapat dilakukan dengan
model kertas dan pensil (pencil and paper test). Teknologi komputer memungkinkan
melakukan kombinasi multimedia berupa tulisan, suara, gambar, dan video pada proses
penilaiannya.
Penelitian ini berupaya untuk mengembangkan bank soal berbasis multimedia yang
terdiri dari teks, suara, gambar, dan video yang dikemas dalam bentuk program berbasis
Computerized Based Testing (CBT) berdasarkan kurikulum 2013. CBT yang dikembangkan
telah divalidasi oleh pakar bahasa Indonesia dan pakar psikometri serta diujicobakan pada
siswa. Pengembangan bank soal tersebut diharapkan lebih relevan dengan kedudukan dan
fungsi bahasa Indonesia. Bank soal yang berbasiskan multimedia tersebut menyesuaikan
kompetensi bahasa Indonesia terutama dari aspek menyimak dan membaca. Pemberian tes
dalam bentuk butir soal multimedia diharapkan dapat lebih memberikan peningkatan
penilaian pada aspek keterampilan kognitif dan kemampuan memecahkan masalah
dibandingkan dengan tes yang hanya berbasis teks yang lebih berfokus pada aspek
pengetahuan siswa. Dari hasil validasi pakar, paket-paket soal berbasis multimedia ini
menghasilkan nilai rata-rata untuk aspek kelayakan paket soal secara umum sebesar 4,45
(paket soal layak digunakan) dan kesesuaian butir soal sebesar 4,36 (butir soal relevan dari
aspek materi, kontruksi, dan bahasa). Dari pandangan guru menghasilkan penilaian yang
sangat positif, serta dari penilaian siswa 90% memilih model penilaian menggunakan CBT
dibandingkan model kertas dan pensil.

A.
PENDAHULUAN
Perkembangan bahasa Melayu menjadi bahasa Indonesia tidak terjadi dalam waktu yang
singkat, tetapi mengalami proses pertumbuhan berabad-abad lamanya. Bahasa Melayu telah
dikenal sebagai bahasa perhubungan (lingua franca) di seluruh kawasan tanah air Indonesi
178 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 179 (Gorys Keraf, 1991:7-10; Hasan Alwi, et al., 1999:2). Kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa
Indonesia semakin diperkuat dengan adanya Sumpah Pemuda khususnya pada ikrar ketiga
yang berbunyi: Kami poetera dan poeteri Indonesia mendjoendjoeng bahasa persatoean,
bahasa Indonesia.Pada saat itulah, bahasa Melayu yang berjiwa semangat baru diganti dengan
namabahasa Indonesia(Gorys Keraf, 1991:11; Hasan Alwi, et al., 1999:1).Fungsi bahasa
Indonesia ditetapkan melalui UUnomor 24 tahun 2009 tentang Bendera, Bahasa, dan
Lambang Negara, serta Lagu Kebangsaan. Undang-undang tersebut mengatur tentang
kedudukan, fungsi, penggunaan, pengembangan, pembinaan, dan perlindungan bahasa
Indonesia, serta upaya peningkatan fungsi bahasa Indonesia menjadi bahasa internasional.
Walaupun kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa Indonesia begitu utama dalam kehidupan
berbangsa dan bernegara, perkembangan pelajaran bahasa Indonesia dalam ranah pendidikan
belum banyak tersentuh oleh kemajuan teknologi pembelajaran, tidak seperti pelajaran
matematika, ilmu alam, bahkan kalah dibandingkan dengan pelajaran bahasa Inggris.
Pengajaran bahasa Indonesia di sekolah tidak berubah secara signifikan dari waktu ke
waktu.Umumnya belum menggunakan sarana multimedia untuk lebih mendukung efektivitas
daya tangkap peserta didik. Selama ini kompetensi menyimak (mendengarkan dan memahami
suatu bacaan/cerita) belum dapat dilakukan secara efektif mengingat keterbatasan alat dan
kemampuan guru. Untuk menguji kompetensi menyimak, siswa hanya diperdengarkan
rekaman suara dari tape recorder.Penggunaan teknologi komputer memungkinkan proses tes
yang tidak dapat dilakukan dengan metode kertas dan pensil (pencil and paper test).
Komputer memungkinkan melakukan kombinasi multimedia berupatulisan,suara, gambar,dan
video.
Pelajaran bahasa Indonesia pada hakikatnya adalah belajar berkomunikasi. Oleh karena
itu, pembelajaran bahasa diarahkan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan peserta didik dalam
berkomunikasi, baik lisan (suara) maupun tulis (Ali Saukah, 2005:107). Sebagai pelajaran
berkonteks ‘bahasa’, pelajaran bahasa Indonesia memerlukan kompetensi yang cukup
kompleks yaitu menyimak, berbicara, membaca, dan menulis. Selama ini proses penilaian
untuk mengukur kompetensi bahasa Indonesia belum dapat dilakukan secara menyeluruh.
Pada umumnya tes bahasa Indonesia lebih banyak dalam bentuk teks yang hanya berfokus
untuk mengukur kompetensi membaca. Sangat diperlukan penggunaan butir-butir soal bahasa
Indonesia yang berbasis multimedia (teks, gambar, suara, dan video) untuk meningkatkan
efektivitas penilaian kompetensi bahasa Indonesia yang lebih menyeluruh.
Saat ini model penilaian pelajaran bahasa Indonesia masih banyak menggunakan tes
objektif dalam bentuk tertulis seperti dapat dilihat pada tes pertengahan dan akhir semester,
atau UAS/UN bahasa Indonesia. Walaupun saat ini sudah dimulai dengan program berbasis
Computerized Based Testing (CBT), namun belum banyak yang menampilkan butir soal
multimedia. CBT yang ada sekarang masih terpaku pada soal dalam bentuk teks saja.
Sehingga pada dasarnya hanya memindahkan nuansa dari tes berbasis kertas dan pensil ke
layar monitor komputer.
Seiring dengan tuntutan kompetensi serta mengingat kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa
Indonesia yang begitu utama, selain dalam bentuk tertulis (teks), diperlukan juga tes dalam
bentuk multimedia (suara, gambar, atau video). Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan suatu bank soal
dalam bentuk multimedia yang terdiri dari kombinasi tulisan, suara, gambar, dan
video.Penelitian ini berupaya untuk mengembangkan bank soal berbasis multimedia yang
terdiri dari teks, suara, gambar, dan video yang dikemas dalam bentuk program CBT
berdasarkan kurikulum 2013, khususnya untuk kelas X. Pengembangan bank soal tersebut
diharapkan lebih relevan dengan kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa Indonesia. Pemberian tes
dalam bentuk butir soal multimedia diharapkan dapat lebih memberikan peningkatan
penilaian pada aspek keterampilan kognitif dan kemampuan memecahkan masalah
180 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 dibandingkan dengan tes yang hanya berbasis teks yang lebih berfokus pada aspek
pengetahuan siswa (Cheng dan Bischof, 2007:1830).

KAJIAN PUSTAKA
1.
Sejarah, Kedudukan, dan Fungsi Bahasa Indonesia
Menurut Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia, definisi bahasa yaitu (1) sistem lambang
bunyi yang digunakan oleh anggota suatu masyarakat untuk bekerja sama, berinteraksi, dan
mengidentifikasikan diri; (2) percakapan (perkataan) yg baik (Hasan Alwi, 2002:88-90).
Bahasa merupakan alat komunikasi lingual manusia, baik secara lisan maupun tertulis dan
berkembang mengikuti kehidupan manusia.
Bahasa Indonesia telah mengalami perjalanan sejarah yang panjang. Prasasti di
Kadukan Bukit (berangka tahun 683), Talang Tuwo (di dekat Palembang, berangka tahun
684), di Kota Kapur (di Pulau Bangka, berangka tahun 686), serta di Karang Brahi (antara
Jambi dan Sungai Musi, berangka tahun 688) merupakan salah satu buktinya. Ditemukan juga
prasasti berbahasa Melayu Kuno di daerah Kedu, Pulau Jawa yang berangka tahun 832.
Sebuah batu nisan yang bertuliskan syair berbahasa Melayu ditemukan di Minye Tujoh, Aceh,
berangka tahun 1380. Sesudah tahun ini, antara abad XIV-XVII diperoleh banyak hasil
kesusteraan lama dalam bentuk hikayat, dongeng, syair, dan sebagainya (Gorys Keraf,
1991:9-11).
Sebelum tercetusnya Sumpah Pemuda, bahasa Melayu telah dipakai sebagai lingua
franca di seluruh kawasan tanah air berabad-abad sebelumnya. Perjalanan bahasa Indonesia
mencapai hasil paling gemilang dengan tercetusnya Sumpah Pemuda, terutama butir ketiga,
yang berbunyi Kami poetera dan poeteri Indonesiamendjoendjoeng bahasa
persatoean,Bahasa Indonesia.Dikatakan luar biasa, sebab banyak negara lain mencoba untuk
membuat hal yang sama namun selalu mengalami kegagalan disertai dengan pertumpahan
darah antarwarganya. Pada saat itulah, bahasa Melayu yang berjiwa dan bersemangat baru
diganti dengan namabahasa Indonesia.
Hasil perumusan seminar politik bahasa nasional yang diselenggarakan di Jakarta pada
tanggal 25-28 Februari 1975, menegaskan bahwa dalam kedudukannya sebagai bahasa
nasional, bahasa Indonesia berfungsi sebagai (1) lambang kebanggaan nasional, (2) lambang
identitas nasional, (3) alat pemersatu berbagai masyarakat yang berbeda-beda latar belakang
sosial budaya dan bahasanya, dan (4) alat perhubungan antarbudaya antardaerah.
Sebagai lambang kebanggaan nasional, bahasa Indonesia ‘memancarkan’ nilai-nilai
sosial budaya luhur bangsa Indonesia. Sebagai lambang identitas nasional, berarti, melalui
berbahasa Indonesia dapat diketahui jati diri, sifat, perangai, dan watak sebagai bangsa
Indonesia. Oleh karena itu, maka harus dijaga jangan sampai ciri kepribadian dan gambaran
bangsa Indonesia tidak tercermin di dalamnya.
2.
Pembelajaran Bahasa Indonesia di SLTA
Kurikulum 2013 yang tidak hanya mempertahankan bahasa Indonesia berada dalam
daftar pelajaran di sekolah, tetapi juga menegaskan pentingnya keberadaan bahasa Indonesia
sebagai penghela dan pembawa ilmu pengetahuan. Dengan paradigma baru tersebut, bahasa
Indonesia diajarkan bukan sekadar sebagai pengetahuan bahasa, melainkan sebagai
pengemban fungsi untuk menjadi sumber aktualisasi diri penggunanya pada konteks sosialbudaya akademis. Bahasa merupakan sarana pembentukan kemampuan berpikir manusia.
Dengan demikian, makin banyak jenis teks yang dikuasai siswa, makin banyak pula struktur
berpikir yang dapat digunakannya dalam kehidupan sosial dan akademiknya. Hanya dengan
cara itu, siswa kemudian dapat mengonstruksi ilmu pengetahuannya melalui kemampuan
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 181 mengobservasi, mempertanyakan, mengasosiasikan, menganalisis, dan menyajikan hasil
analisis secara memadai (Maryanto, et al., 2014).
Ruang lingkup dalam pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia mencakup komponen kemampuan
berbahasa dan kemampuan bersastra yang meliputi aspek keterampilan mendengarkan
(menyimak), berbicara, membaca, dan menulis (Rubiyat Pujiastuti, 2010:7). Keempat aspek
tersebut dibagi menjadi dua kelompok besar, yaitu (1) keterampilan yang bersifat menerima
(reseptif) yang meliputi keterampilan membaca dan menyimak, (2) keterampilan yang bersifat
mengungkap (produkstif) yang meliputi keterampilan menulis dan berbicara (Ismail,
2009:29). Keempat aspek tersebut diharapkan mendapatkan porsi pembelajaran yang
seimbang dan dilaksanakan secara terpadu.
Secara umum pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia di Kurikulum 2013 menyetarakan SMK
dan SMA, yaitu mencakup komponen kemampuan berbahasa dan kemampuan bersastra
secara efektif dan efisien yang meliputi aspek-aspek mendengarkan, berbicara, membaca, dan
menulis. Pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia diharapkan membantu peserta didik mengenal
dirinya, budayanya, dan budaya orang lain, mengemukakan gagasan dan perasaan,
berpartisipasi dalam masyarakat yang menggunakan bahasa tersebut, dan menemukan serta
menggunakan kemampuan analitis dan imaginatif yang ada dalam dirinya.
Proses pengajaran bahasa Indonesia di sekolah tidak berubah secara signifikan dari
waktu ke waktu. Walaupun kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa Indonesia begitu utama dalam
kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara, perkembangan pelajaran bahasa Indonesia dalam ranah
pendidikan belum banyak tersentuh oleh kemajuan teknologi pembelajaran, tidak seperti
pelajaran matematika, ilmu alam, bahasa Inggris, dan lain-lain. Sebagai pelajaran yang
berkonteks ‘bahasa’, pelajaran bahasa Indonesia mempunyai kompetensi yang cukup
kompleks yaitu menyimak, berbicara, membaca, dan menulis. Namun pembelajaran dan
penilaian terhadap keempat kompetensi tersebut belum dilaksanakan secara maksimal.
Misalnya, untuk proses pembelajaran dan penilaian kompetensi dasar menyimak, peserta
didik biasanya hanya diperdengarkan rekaman suara dari tape recorder.
Dari hasil PIRLS 2006 secara umum menunjukkan kemampuan berbahasa untuk peserta
didik di Indonesia tergolong masih rendah (Munger, 2009). Noni Swediati dan Utorodewo
(2009) menemukan bahwa salah satu kekurangan pembelajaran bahasa Indonesia pada praktik
pengujian, yaitu lebih menekankan pada kemampuan mengedit dan bukannya mengukur
kemampuan kebahasaan peserta didik secara menyeluruh.
Saat ini model evaluasi pelajaran bahasa Indonesia berupa tes objektif dan tes uraian
dalam bentuk tertulis dengan menggunakan metode kertas dan pensil (pencil and paper test).
Hal ini dapat dilihat pada tes UAS/UN bahasa Indonesia. Sedangkan model evaluasi yang
tidak berbasis teks/tulisan seperti kompetensi menyimak dan berbicara belum mendapat
model evaluasi dengan baik. Hal tersebut pada umumnya dikarenakan keterbatasan sarana dan
kemampuan guru. Hal itulah yang melatarbelakangi penelitian ini untuk membangun bank
soal yang tidak hanya berbasiskan teks/tulisan tetapi juga suara, gambar, dan video
(multimedia).
Tes objektif UN merupakan tes pilihan berganda dengan lima pilihan jawaban.
Perangkat tes terbagi ke dalam tiga bentuk berdasarkan tingkat kesukarannya, yaitu mudah,
sedang, dan sukar. Tes diskor dengan cara memberikan skor satu pada setiap jawaban benar.
Jumlah jawaban benar merupakan skor total tes bagi setiap peserta tes
3.
Penyelenggaraan Tes
Penyelenggaraan tes melalui paper and pencil test (P&P test) melibatkan penggunaan
lembaran kertas. Kelemahan P&Ptest adalah kerahasiaan tes sulit dijamin karena dapat saja
dibaca oleh orang yang tidak berwenang atau bertanggung jawab (Bunderson, etal., 1989).
Penggunaan kertas menjadi masalah tersendiri, misalnya dibutuhkan ruang penyimpanan data
182 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 perangkat tes.Seiring dengan perkembangan teknologi, sejak tahun 1980-an, pengujian
dengan menggunakan komputer mulai dilakukan mulai tes prestasi, tes penerimaan pegawai,
tes kesehatan, sampai tes kejujuran. Pada awalnya, komputer hanya digunakan untuk
mengotomatisasikan aktivitas pengukuran konvensional. Penggunaan komputer seperti ini
disebut Computerized Testing atau Computerized Based Testing (CBT). CBT merupakan
generasi pertama penggunaan komputer untuk pengujian. Namun prinsip kerja CBT tidak lain
hanya memindahkan paradigma P&P test ke dalam layar komputer.
Bunderson, et al. (1989:174) menyatakan kelebihan dari CBT, yaitu:meningkatkan
standardisasi, meningkatkan keamanan tes, meningatkan kemampuan tampilan tes,
memperkecil kesalahan pengukuran, peniadaan lembaran kertas, serta mempercepat
pemberian skor dan interpretasi.
C.
METODE
Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan penelitian Research and Development (R&D)
yaitu dengan menggunakan model waterfall(Pressman, 2011:28-29), meliputi(1) analisis
kebutuhan sistem, (2) perancangan dan pengujian feasibilitas model dalam bentuk
prototiping, (3) persiapan dan pengembangan perangkat lunak untuk diimplementasikan, (4)
pengujian perangkat lunak dalam skala terbatas, (5) revisi produk pertama, (6) pengujian
dalam situasi yang sesungguhnya, verifikasi dan validasi produk (alpha dan beta testing), dam
(7) perbaikan dan penyempurnaan produk akhir. Secara teknis pengembangan dalam
penelitian ini terdiri atas tiga tahapan : tahap pertama membangun bank soal, tahap kedua
perancangan dan implementasi program CBT, dan tahap yang ketiga yaitu evaluasi produk
CBT.
D.
HASIL PENELITIAN DAN PEMBAHASAN
Dari penelitian dihasilkan 8 (delapan) paket soal pelajaran bahasa Indonesia untuk kelas
X yang setara didasarkan pada materi kurikulum 2013. Jumlah paket soal yaitu 8 (delapan)
paket yang masing-masing terdiri dari 50 (lima puluh) butir soal. Setiap paket soal terdiri dari
50 (lima puluh) butir soal dengan rincian soal 30 (tiga puluh) soal berbasis teks, 10 (sepuluh)
soal berbasis gambar, 5 (lima) soal berbasis suara5 (lima) soal berbasis video. Setiap paket
soal terdapat 10 soal anchor yang diletakkan pada nomor 41 s.d. nomor 50. Soal anchor
adalah soal yang sama di tiap-tiap paket untuk menjaga keterpaduan paket-paket soal
tersebut.Perbandingan jumlah soal berbasis multimedia tersebut mengacu pada persentase
kegiatan siswa pada mata pelajaran bahasa Indonesia kelas X yang mempunyai perbandingan
antara kegiatan mendengarkan/menyimak dan membaca serta penguatan kaidah tata bahasa
yaitu 10 : 30 : 6 (Maryanto, et al., 2014:188). Contoh-contoh tampilan yang ditayangkan pada
monitor antara lain,
Gambar 1. Tampilan awal program CBT yang dikembangkan
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 183 Gambar 2. Contoh tampilan butir multimedia pada program CBT
Gambar 3. Tampilan skor nilai yang langsung keluar
Program CBT yang dibangun berbasis web, sehingga program dapat dijalankan melalui
jaringan komputer secara on line. Dari hasil ujicoba program di beberapa sekolah, program
CBT yang dirancang dapat berhasil dengan baik. Kendala kecil yang muncul biasanya
dikarenakan tidak sempurnanya jaringan serta kondisi komputer di laboratorium komputer
yang digunakan.
Butir-butir soal multimedia diambil dari permasalahan sehari-hari, disesuaikan dengan
topik mata pelajaran kelas X yaitu teks anekdot, teks eksposisi, teks laporan hasil observasi,
teks prosedur kompleks, dan teks negosiasi. Untuk butir soal berbasis gambar antara lain
berupa, tabel, grafik, dan kliping koran. Untuk butir soal berbasis suara antara lain diambil
184 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 dari UKBI, rekaman media massa, dan rekaman sendiri, sedangkan untuk butir soal berbasis
video antara lain diambil dari rekaman televisi, potongan film, serta video dari internet.
Sebelum diujicoba ke siswa, paket-paket soal yang telah disusun telah diperiksa oleh 8
(delapan) guru-guru MGMP SMA dan SMK di Kabupaten Boyolali, serta telah divalidasi
oleh 5 (lima) pakar, yang terdiri dari 2 (dua) pakar/guru besar) bahasa Indonesia serta pakar
psikometri. Pakar bahasa Indonesia memvalidasi paket-paket soal dari sudut pandang
kebahasaannya, sedangkan pakar psikometri memvalidasi paket-paket soal dari sudut pandang
standar kontruksi pembuatan soal.Dari hasil validasi pakar, paket-paket soal berbasis
multimedia ini menghasilkan nilai rata-rata untuk aspek kelayakan paket soal secara umum
sebesar 4,45 (paket soal layak digunakan) dan kesesuaian butir soal sebesar 4,36 (butir soal
relevan dari aspek materi, kontruksi, dan bahasa). Masukan-masukan kontruktif dari para guru
dan pakar selanjutnya menjadi sumber perbaikan program CBT yang disusun.
Dari pandangan guru,saat ujicoba di sekolah, menghasilkan penilaian yang sangat
positif. Guru berpandangan bahwa butir soal yang disajikan dengan bentuk multimedia lebih
dapat memperkaya kompetensi bahasa Indonesia terutama dari aspek menyimak dan
membaca. Pemberian tes dalam bentuk butir soal multimedia dinilai dapat lebih memberikan
peningkatan penilaian pada aspek keterampilan kognitif dan kemampuan memecahkan
masalah dibandingkan dengan tes yang hanya berbasis teks yang lebih berfokus pada aspek
pengetahuan siswa. Penulis bekerja sama dengan guru bidang studi bahasa Indonesia dengan
cara hasil nilai siswa diberikan kepada guru sebagai bagian dari evaluasi siswa. Data yang
dapat digali dari database program CBT dapat dikembangkan untuk banyak keperluan selain
untuk perolehan skor nilai siswa. Dari hasil respon jawaban siswa tersebut dapat
dikembangkan untuk evaluasi dan diagnostik perkembangan pengetahuan siswa.
Dari sudut pandang siswa, 90% siswa memilih model penilaian menggunakan CBT
dibandingkan model kertas dan pensil. Mereka memilih CBT dengan alasan antara lain bahwa
CBT lebih praktis dan lebih bersih dibandingkan dengan tes konvensional (paper and pencil
test). Mereka sangat menyukai model soal yang lebih bervariasi dengan soal multimedia dan
gambar yang berwarna. Mereka juga menyukai hasil yang langsung mereka dapatkan bila soal
telah mereka kerjakan. Namun di antara siswa sebesar 10% lebih menyukai model tes paper
and pencil test dikarenakan mereka belum terbiasa dengan CBT dan CBT membuat mata
menjadi cepat lelah.
E.
SIMPULAN
Pengembangan pelajaran bahasa Indonesia secara umum mengalami ketinggalan
dibandingkan dengan pelajaran yang lainnya. Walaupun kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa
Indonesia begitu utama dalam kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara, perkembangan pelajaran
bahasa Indonesia dalam ranah pendidikan belum banyak tersentuh oleh kemajuan teknologi
pembelajaran. Teknologi komputer memungkinkan melakukan kombinasi multimedia berupa
tulisan, suara, gambar, dan video pada proses penilaiannya. Program CBT berbasis
multimedia yang dikembangkan diharapkan lebih menempatkan pelajaran bahasa Indonesia
lebih relevan dengan kedudukan dan fungsi bahasa Indonesia. Bank soal yang berbasiskan
multimedia tersebut menyesuaikan kompetensi bahasa Indonesia terutama dari aspek
menyimak dan membaca. Pemberian tes dalam bentuk butir soal multimedia diharapkan
dapat lebih memberikan peningkatan penilaian pada aspek keterampilan kognitif dan
kemampuan memecahkan masalah dibandingkan dengan tes yang hanya berbasis teks yang
lebih berfokus pada aspek pengetahuan siswa.

ABSTRACT
Etiquette in England is interesting to be analyzed, because England has several periods
and different manners along with the country development. One of them is Regency period. It
had some manners that reflected in Jane Austen’s novels. This research aims to identify types
of etiquettes in the Jane Austen’s novels; describe the etiquettes that reflected in the Jane
Austen’s novels; and reveal the underlying reason why Jane Austen addressed the etiquettes
in the novels. This study is qualitative research which the researcher uses narrative research to
analyze the works. The data of the research are the etiquette in the Jane Austen’s novels:
Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), Emma
(1815), Northanger Abbey (1818), and Persuasion (1818) novels. The technique of data
collection is done through documentation of library research. After all data have been
collected, then analyze the data used descriptive analysis. The finding of this research isfound
five etiquettes reflected in all of the six novels. Those etiquettes are visiting manners,
speaking manners, party and balls, dressing manners, and table manners found in all of the six
novels. The social rules did apply to both ladies and gentlemen, and touched upon almost
every area of daily life.
Keywords: etiquette, Jane Austen’s novels, regency England, early nineteenth century,
sociological approach
A.
INTRODUCTION
Jane Austen’s novels have become the famous novel in two hundred years. The author
creates her works as the reflection of the social phenomena or conditions at the time. As
Klarer (2004: 1) said that literature “as cultural and historical phenomena and to investigate
the conditions of their production and reception.” Jane Austen’s novels represented the social
condition and situation in the early of nineteenth century. It is interesting that England had
several periods and different manners along with the country development. One of them is
Regency period. The Regency was an era of change and unrest as well as one of glittering
social occasions, celebrations and extraordinary achievement in art and literature (Kloester,
2010: 1). It had some manners that reflected in Jane Austen’s novels. This research aims to
identify types of etiquettes in the novels, describe the etiquettes that reflected in the novels,
and reveal the underlying reason why Jane Austen addressed the etiquettes in the novels.
There are some researchers who have done the research in Jane Austen’s novels, such as
Tanrivermis (2005), Bochman (2005), Vuoso (2008), Hearn (2010), Foust (2013), Olson
(2013), Sasso (2013), Ashfaq and Khattak (2014), Boarcas (2014), and Guin (2015).
However, most of the researchers who analyzed the works of Jane Austen focused on the
feminist aspect, the adaptation from the Austen’s work into several novels or movies, and
186 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 187 marriage life. So, there are no researchers who have been conducted a research about the
etiquette that reflected in the Jane Austen’s novels.
B.
UNDERLYING THEORY
According to Swingewood and Laurenson (1972: 12) literature is “A work of art, which
expresses of human life and the problem on society, particularly concerns with law, religion,
norms and value of society, economics, and politics with qualities of the relationship among
them.” Literary used as a social document, literature can be made to yield the outlines of
social history (Wellek and Warren, 1962: 99). Through the literary works, we can learn
phenomena in society in certain time and place (Swingewood and Laurenson, 1972: 15-17).
Literary works give details of particular periods, reflects norms, attitudes, classes, and values
in the sense of the writer’s own intention.From their explanations, researcher thinks that this
study is suitable to analyze using sociological approach. It is clear that sociology and
literature is influencing and complementing each other.
C.
RESEARCH METHOD
This study is qualitative research which the researcher uses narrative research to analyze
the works besides books and other related references to support the subject matter. The data of
the research are the etiquette in the Jane Austen’s novels. The primary data sources are Jane
Austen’s Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814),
Emma (1815), Northanger Abbey (1818), and Persuasion (1818) novels. While the secondary
data are taken from other sources such as journal, books of literature, author’s biography,
essays, article, and other relevant information.
The technique of data collection is done through documentation of library research.
Documentation is the data collection which uses all of the data sources (Creswell, 2007: 118).
After all data have been collected, then analyze the data used descriptive analysis. As Miles
and Huberman explained (1994: 245) the methods of data analysis includes several steps. The
steps are collecting the data sources, recording the information by taking notes and writing
reflective passages in notes, summarizing field notes by drafting a summary sheet on the field
notes, writing codes and memos, noting patterns and themes, counting frequency of codes,
building the logical chain, and displaying the data by making contrast and comparisons.

RESEARCH FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION
1.
Research Findings
The researcher found several manners in Jane Austen’s novels reflected in the early of
nineteenth century England. The manners are visiting manners, speaking manners, party and
balls, dressing manners, and table manners.
a.
Visiting Manners
1)
Visitor
a)
Formal Visit
The formal visit is business occasion. There should be a written invitation but if
among the businessmen are close friend, no written invitation needed. It shows in Emma
when Mr. Knightley visited Mr. Woodhouse to discuss about their business.
188 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 …Mr. Knightley, who had been of the party, and had seen only proper
attention and pleasing behaviour on each side, he was expressing the next
morning, being at Hartfield again on business with Mr. Woodhouse,
(Emma, 2006: 111)
Regency England was dominated by man in every part of job field such as farmer,
trader, soldier, lawyer, etc. Most of the gentleman’s job in the Regency Period was
businessman or military man. In fact that formal visit is seldom to find rather than the
informal visit in Jane Austen’s novels, because the society was merely about the
pleasure and much about social activities.
b)
Informal Visit
For the informal visit here is social event, family visiting, and visit in someone’s
house. The invitation is direct invitation if the host and the guest are close to each other.
The main point in a country house is to give as little trouble as possible. In case of
social visit, the new citizen who moved in a new city or village, or if the person has
been married, usually they will receive the neighbor as a guest. If the neighbor relations
are going well, they will visit often and invite them back to dine together.
Captain Wenthworth was known to be at Kellynch, and Mr. Musgrove had
called on him, and come back warm in his praise, and he was engaged with
the Crofts to dine at Uppercross, by the end of another week. And he made a
very early return to Mr. Musgrove’s civility.
(Persuasion, 2006: 63)
Holiday season is one of the reasons visiting family. Jane Austen is often
mentions about travelling to their family members or near friends in her novels. It is
shown in her novels, when Mrs. Bennet’s brother and his wife came as usual to spend
Christmas at Longbourn (Pride and Prejudice, 2006: 158). Even Isabella Woodhouse or
Mrs. John Knightley has been married and lived in London, she, her husband and their
children visited to the Woodhouse’s house before Christmas (Emma, 2006: 5).
In a long visit, if the host had another schedule, the guest might do activity that
pleased him. Elizabeth Bennet went walk to her favourite sheltered path while Mr. and
Mrs. Collins were calling on Lady Catherine (Pride and Prejudice, 2006: 191). While in
Emma Mrs. John Knightley has her own schedule to spend her morning with her
children. She spent it herself because her father condition was impossible to walk far
from home, and her sister could not left her father alone.
Mrs. John Knightley going about every morning among her old
acquaintance with her five children, and talking over what she had done
every evening with her father and sister.
(Emma, 2006: 73)
When taking leave, the guest should express the pleasure they have experienced in
their visit.” It is drawn when Elizabeth ended her visit in the Collins, she thanked and
said that she had great enjoyment to spend the time with them.
Elizabeth was eager with her thanks and assurances of happiness. She had
spent six weeks with great enjoyment; and the pleasure of being with
Charlotte, and the kind attentions she had received, must make her feel the
obliged.
(Pride and Prejudice, 2006: 238)
An important rule for ladies are when they were in a journey that they should have
a servant or family member to accompany them during the journey, because it could be
dangerous whether it public or private carriage (Kloester, 2010: 174).
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 189 2)
Host
All kind of visit should get the invitation letter or direct personal invitation from
the lady of the house.The purpose of invitation were vary and it depends on the hostess,
because the hostess who has role to send the invitation to the guest.As mentioned in
Mansfield Park, the invitation come to make two family closer because Mr. Rushworth
take in marriage Maria Bertram. Mrs. Rushworth make the invitation on her own,
directly come to the Bertram’s house to invite the whole member of the family.
Mrs. Rushworth, a well-meaning, civil, prosing, pompous woman, who
thought nothing of consequence…, had not yet given over pressing Lady
Bertram to be of the party. Lady Bertram constantly declined it.
“The loss of her ladyship’s company would be a great drawback, and she
could have been extremely happy to have seen the young lady too, Miss
Price, who had never seen at Sotherton yet, and it was a pity she should not
see the place.”
(Mansfield Park, 2005: 73 – 74)
According to Kloester (2010: 98), “If the lady of the house wished to see visitor,
the guest was invited to come in the morning room or in the drawing room, whereas the
host received his guest in the business room or library.” On the other way, if the lady of
the house does not wish to see her guest, she would send the servant to tell that she is
not at home. This happened to Catherine Morland when she visited Miss Tilney,
When she was going to the Tilney’s lodging and Miss Tilney was about to
go with her father, “She gave her card. In a few minutes the servant
returned, and said he had been mistaken, for that Miss Tilney was walked
out.”
(Northanger Abbey, 2006: 90)
Nevertheless, the host should provide amusement for his guests (Hughes, 1998:
190). This is shown when Mrs. Collins welcomed her friend with the liveliest pleasure,
and Elizabeth was more and more satisfied with coming, when she found herself so
affectionately received (Pride and Prejudice, 2006: 176). Sometimes the host has made
some arrangements to spend the day with the guests and if the host has something to
attend after breakfast, the guest will retire to their own occupations (Hughes, 1998:
190).
b.
Speaking Manners
1)
Formal
The researcher determines formal speaking based on the occasion, such as
business and ball. In formal introduction, a social inferior is always introduced to a
superior, men to women rather than the reverse, and only with the latter’s acquiescence
(Pool, 1993: 55). This rule apply in public assembly, the master of ceremonies will
introduce the gentleman to the lady as a partner of dance.
According to Le Faye (2002: 113) “modes of address were very formal even
within the family, in public at least, husband and wife spoke and referred to each other
as Mr. and Mrs.; while children called their parents Sir and Ma’am as well as Papa and
Mama.”Outside the family, Christian names were used to distinguish younger brothers
and sisters. To address or refer to some unrelated person by their Christian name alone
signified either that the person was a child or an inferior, or else that the speaker was
over-familiar and vulgar.
I only puzzle them, and oblige them to make civil speeches. Mr. Edmund
Bertram, as you do not act yourself, you will be a disinterested adviser;”
(Mansfield Park, 2005: 143)
190 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 From the example above, Edmund Bertram is the younger brother. The citizens
would call Tom Bertram as Mr. Bertram because he is the older brother. So that is why
Edmund called as Mr. Edmund Bertram to differentiate between the older son and
younger son.
2)
Informal
In the society, people must know how to use word wisely and give another people
chance to talk. Even the upper class sometimes they can misbehave, just like Mr. Darcy
did. In Pride and Prejudice(47 – 48), Mr. Darcy had insulted Mrs. Bennet with talking
that in the country has unvarying society. So, Mrs. Bennet has felt insult by Mr. Darcy
and told him that she had dinner with twenty four families there. As explained from the
example, Jane Austen described the opposite manner to speak politely. She did not
agree with the attitude and describe it through the minor characters.
c.
Party and Balls
1)
Dinner Party
The dinner party began with the selection of guests who would not be socially
uncomfortable together (Pool, 1993: 72). The guests usually their close friends,
neighbor and business or political colleague, so generally they knew each other. Write
the invitations or it can be direct invitation to the guest (Sullivan, 2007: 45). Soon after
the invitation has arrived, the guest should write the RSVP to the host, to inform
whether they will come or not. Dinner parties were an ordeal, if not for the guests, then
certainly for the hostess. As happened in Emma, when Mr. and Mrs. Elton married, the
citizens often invited them to attend the dinner at their house.
Everybody in and about Highbury who had ever visited Mr. Elton, was
disposed to pay him attention on his marriage. Dinner-parties and eveningparties were made for him and his lady; and invitations flowed in so fast that
she had soon the pleasure of apprehending they were never to have a
disengaged day.
(Emma, 2006: 191)
It had become a rule that after dinner the ladies followed the hostess to the
drawing room for drinking tea or coffee, conversation, reading, gossip, or needlework
until the gentlemen join them to drink tea (Sullivan, 2007: 109). After drinking tea or
coffee was over and the gentlemen have already joined the ladies, they would entertain
themselves by playing cards, dancing, singing or playing music.
2)
Balls
Ball was the other pleasure of social activity that can be engaged with the whole
citizen. There were two kinds of ball, public assembly and private ball. Public assembly
usually requires the payment of a fee; while the private ball the guest will receive a
handwritten invitation from the host and the guest must respond the invitation (Sullivan,
2007: 117). The sessions for both private and public balls were the same, usually
dancing, playing music, singing, or playing card for those who do not dance.
When man asked woman to dance, there are some appropriate rules to do. For the
purpose of dancing wait to be recognized before speaking with ladies, and a gentleman
cannot ask a lady for more than two dances during the same evening (Pool, 1993: 55).
Isabella speaks to Catherine that her brother ask Isabella to dance again,
“…my dear Catherine, what your brother wants me to do. He wants me to
dance with him again, though I tell him that it is a most improper thing, and
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 191 entirely against the rules. It would make us the talk of the place, if we were
not to change partners.”
(Northanger Abbey, 2006: 53)
When the dance began, the first dancers were the hostess or her daughter and the
gentleman of highest rank present (Pool, 1993: 80). Besides the highest rank, the new
bride also got the honorable to lead the dance.Some partners engaged in conversation
during dancing, they did it to make their partners not to feel bored. A woman who is
usually tries to start conversation.However, how hard woman tries to make a good
situation while dancing, they should be prepare for silence.
d.
Dressing Manners
1)
Formal Dressing for Ladies
Formal dressing for ladies was worn to the balls. The ladies used muslin, silk,
satin or lace for the material, and white as the favorite color because it was more easily
combined and accessorized than other colors (Downing, 2011: 27).It proofed when
Edmund tells Fanny (in Mansfield Park, 2005: 216) “A woman can never be too fine
while she is all white. No, I see no finery about you; nothing but what is perfectly
proper. Your gown seems very pretty. I like these glossy spots. Has not Miss Crawford
a gown something the same?”
The train at the back gown was still styled for ball dress to make an elegant look, and
the ladies would pinned it when they were dancing to make them easier to move.
Women wore gloves and shawl to keep them warm when outside of the house.
Mrs. Morland told Catherine to wear her shawl at night to keep her warm, “I beg,
Catherine, you will always wrap yourself up very warm about the throat, when you
come from the Rooms at night (Northanger Abbey, 2006: 11).”
2)
Formal Dressing for Gentlemen
The gentlemen wore black cloth and trousers, waistcoat, and black shoes with
gold or silver buckles for the evening wear (Sullivan, 2007: 75). As Mr. Elton’s wear to
attend dinner party in the Mr. and Mrs. Weston’s house, “…the step was let down, and
Mr. Elton, spruce, black, and smiling… (Emma, 2006: 77).” Coats were plain, usually
dark–coloured cloth, waistcoats could be of a wide variety of colours and fabrics. For
the evening, white or black were the essentials colours (Kloester, 2010: 182).
“I longed to know whether he would be married in his blue coat.”
(Pride and Prejudice, 2006: 352)
3)
Informal Dressing for Ladies
The informal dresses for ladies were morning dress and visiting dress. Morning
dress was the simpler style than the visiting dress. Plain or sprigged muslins in light or
darker colored calico or wool are best for ladies’ morning gowns (Sullivan, 2007: 69).
Habit is a riding or travelling dress as well as for horse-riding.The ladies were also worn
outerwear to keep them warm and as their gown statements at once. There are various
styles of outerwear: pelisse, spencer, and cloak.
“She is netting herself the sweetest cloak you can conceive.”
(Northanger Abbey, 2006: 33)
Accessories were an essential part of a well-dressed for the Regency woman’s
wardrobe and included a variety of hat, gloves, muffs, fans, and bags (Kloester, 2010:
206). The popular style of hat at that time is bonnet. It has strap to tie under the chin.
Women’s in the Regency period like to modify their bonnet with lace, satin, or bow to
make it prettier and different to the other bonnet or make it look like a new bonnet.
192 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Bags were not only for complement style, it also to carry stuffs. Woman in the Regency
period safe their needle tools in the bags, called work bag.
She vowed at first she would never trim me up a new bonnet, nor do
anything else for me again, so long as she lived; but now she is quite come
to, and we are as good friends as ever. Look, she made me this bow to my
hat, and put in the feather last night. There now, you are going to laugh at
me too. But why should not I wear pink ribbons? I do not care if it is the
Doctor’s favourite colour.
(Sense and Sensibility, 2006: 308)
Shoes were also known as slippers, had several models and its different functions.
Either flat or low heel were fastened with ribbons or laces tied around the ankle or
instep (Kloester, 2010: 205). For walking or riding, a lady wore half boots (Kloester,
2010: 206).
4)
Informal Dressing for Gentlemen
The same thing with women’s clothing, menswear in the daytime, a gentleman
will wear a cutaway coat in a plain dark fabric, a style just made for riding, as well as a
waistcoat, breeches, or pantaloons, boots, and a snowy linen shirt and cravat (Sullivan,
2007: 75). It was a habitual of men in the Regency era to wear coat when they were on a
walk, a short travel or a journey. Coat is like their essential clothes. The coat can protect
them from the extreme weather. For the soldier, army or navy, coat was their primary
outfit in every occasion. Every gentleman has a great coat for driving an open vehicle or
walking.
...when Henry, about an hour afterwards, came booted and great coated into
the room…
(Northanger, Abbey, 2006: 217)
As explained above, Henry Tilney wearing boot and great coat, it is a dressing for
outdoor activity. Usually great coat are wear for a travel to protect from the cold
weather or wind.
A gentleman also wore accessories such as hats, cravat, gloves, walking stick and
jewelries. Hat always wear when a gentleman goes outside. They also trimmed their
hats to show the status or his condition. A gentleman wears different style of hat for a
different occasion.
In fact, Anne could never see the crape round his hat, without fearing that
she was the inexcusable one.
(Persuasion, 2006: 175)
In Persuasion, Mr. Elliot who is widower trimmed his hat with a black crape as sign
that he is still in mourning for his wife death seventh months ago. It is undeniable that
accessories sometimes show the status of the wearer.
The neckcloth was a large square of fabrics, usually muslin, lawn, or silk, which
was folded into either triangle or a wide band and tied at the front neck (Kloester, 2010:
189). Mr. Tilney shown it was true that he bought cravat on his himself, “I always buy
my own cravats;” (Northanger Abbey, 2006: 20). For the man of fashion, the neckcloth
or cravat was a crucial part of his daily dress. The other essential accessories are gloves.
It is shown in the novel that gentlemen also wear gloves for outdoor or indoor activity
except in the dinner.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 193 e.
Table Manners
1)
Host
Dinner was became a social habitual in the Regency period. The host and hostess
should be prepared for the dinner party in their house to make the dinner run smooth
and comfortable for the guest. In Jane Austen’s novels, the host prepared everything to
make the dinner party are not disappointing. From arrange the menu until prepare the
guests’ special needs.
If there is a guest who is invalid, be sure that the host has a special screen for the
fire (Sullivan, 2007: 45). Mr. Knightley has been prepared for Mr. Woodhouse’s need,
“especially prepared for him by a fire all the morning, he was happily placed, quite at
his ease (Emma, 2006: 237).” In Hartfield, the fire has never been extinguished even in
summer because Mr. Woodhouse’s condition and he always worried about being
unhealthy if the fire was extinguished. So, Mr. Knightley gets the fireplace on for that
day to make Mr. Woodhouse comfortable and Emma could enjoy the events.
2) Guest
Jane Austen's people lived at a time of transition regarding the conventions
governing the entrance to the dining-room. Formerly it had been the rule for all the
ladies to enter together first, followed by the men. Later etiquette dictated that each
gentleman should offer an arm to his chosen - or allotted - lady to take her in; the host
always escorting the female guest of highest social standing (Lane, 1995: 39).
Dinner was on table. – Mrs. Elton, before she could be spoken to, was
ready; and before Mr. Woodhouse had reached her with his request to be
allowed to hand her into the dining-parlour, was saying--"Must I go first? I really am ashamed of always leading the way."
(Emma, 2006: 197)
Mr. Woodhouse as the host and gentleman with the highest social rank offered an arm
to Mrs. Elton as his special guest and a new bride. Hence, she and Mr. Woodhouse led
the way to the dining room.
When the servants are present to clean up the dish; do not gossip or discuss
private business; while the table is cleared and the second course is laid out (Sullivan,
2007: 109). If the servants hear what the host and the guest talking about, the servants
gossiping the conversations they heard. The host and guest may start to talk when the
servants have already exit from the room.
2.
Discussion
Jane Austen’s novels have relation to the English society in the early nineteenth
century. It proofs that the etiquette in the novels of each characters reflected to the
society of Regency England. As Wellek and Warren (1962: 89) state that “Literature has
also a social function, which cannot be purely individual. Thus a large majority
questions raised are, at least ultimately or by implication, social questions of tradition
and convention, norms and genres, symbols and myths.” This is clear that Jane Austen’s
novels represent the social convention and norms at that time.
Swingewood and Laurenson (1972, 15-17) state that “through the literary works,
we can learn phenomena in society in certain time and place”. Jane Austen wrote the
novels as the reflection of Regency England’s condition in the early of nineteenth
century. The social condition may contain all aspects such as social, culture, economy,
politic, and religious aspect. The aspects contain in this novels are social and
culture.Literary work give details of particular periods, reflects norms, attitudes, classes,
and values in the sense of the writer’s own intention. The researcher analyzes that Jane
Austen’s intention in her novels is the social life of Regency England. The researcher
194 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 finds that the daily activity of the novels reflected the etiquette of England society in the
early nineteenth century. We can see from how the characters behave in every novel.
The Regency period was famous with manners and social activities.
E.
CONCLUSION
Based on the research findings and discussion in above, the researcher draws the
conclusion as follows. First, there are five etiquettes reflected in all of the six novels. Those
etiquettes are visiting manners, speaking manners, party and balls, dressing manners, and
table manners found in all of the six novels. In each manner divided into several specific
manners based on the gender, occasion, and personal’s status.
Second, the etiquettes described through the conversations, author’s narration, and
character’s behavior. The researcher analyzes both major and minor characters in the novels
to make the data clear and strong. For example when Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet, and
Frank Churchill and Emma Woodhouse were dancing, the gentlemen secured ladies’ hands
and lead them to the dance floor. The dressing for both ladies and gentlemen are different and
it depends on the event.
Third, Jane Austen addresses the etiquette in the novel because it was important for
social interaction. The etiquette in the Regency England were exists and determined by a
complex set of rules of varying flexibility, with different codes of behavior for men and
women (Kloester, 2010: 3). The social rules did apply to both ladies and gentlemen, and
touched upon almost every area of daily life.

Introduction
The implementation of the 2013 curriculum was started step by step in the academic
year 2014/2015. There were significant changes from 2006 curriculum. These changes may
cause some problems for most English teachers to implement the curriculum in the classroom.
The teacher, in SMA PPMI AssalaamSukoharjo Central Java which is on the academic year
2014/2015, has started to implement 2013 curriculum for tenth grade. The new thing for the
196 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 197 writer is that the 2013 curriculum suggested English teachers to use sciencetific approach in
teaching methodology.
According to the book of Standard Competence for English lesson for Senior High
School students 2006 curriculum, standard competence which should be mastered by the
students is that they should be able to communicate in spoken and written Englishacceptably
and accurately in interactional and short monolog especially on procedure, description, report,
news item, narrative, recount/ spoof, exposition, discussion, explanation and review text.
These texts are known as text types or “genre” which really something new for students as
well as teachers. Because that the 2006 curriculum was a kind of thematic based on
instruction.
In teaching narrative text, what is meant by cycle here is different from that in action
research. So the meaning of cycle, spoken and written in teaching language has nothing to do
with the meaning of cycle in action research. With these stages, students are guided to be able
to create their own narrative texts in spoken or written form. According to the writer’s
experience to teach in the classroom and the discussion of MTs PPMI Assalaam English
teachers in MGMP (English Teachers Forum), most problems faced by the students is when
they reach the stage of “Joint Construction of Text” and “Individual Construction of Text”
both in spoken or written cycle. The writer found the problem whenstudents try to express and
response meaning in monolog text using spoken and written English accurately and
acceptably. This difficulty affected the students’ English score.
This problem had to be resolved. The writer, therefore, tried to find a solution.
Because the problem was to express and response meaning in monolog text using spoken
and written English accurately and acceptably, the writer tried to increase their performance
by using suitable, interesting and exciting media, film. Average, students, at the age of
juniorhigh like film stories that they watch on TV, VCD, or movie. By watching the
visualization of a story there would be ideas appeared from them to tell stories about the film
they watched in spoken or written form. The 2013 Curriculum also includes computer skill or
Information Technology (IT) as a media in teaching learning process. This was very helpful
for the students’ performance when they were studying English. They could tell stories in
spoken or written using media Microsoft Office Power Point completed with interesting
color, animation, and VCD cutting taken from motion pictures which reflected the stories
they presented in front of their classmates.
Through their presentation, two cycles, spoken and written could be obtained at once.
Spoken cycle could be seen when they told stories about the film and written cycle could be
seen on the narrative text which they wrote in Power Point. But by using media VCD
Cutting, is there any students’ improvement to express and to response meaning in monolog
text in spoken and written form accurately and acceptably on narrative text. The writer
formulated this article entitled: “English Communication Competency Improvement on
Spoken and Written Narrative Text Through “VCD Cutting” Media atMTs PPMI Assalaam
Sukoharjo Central Java”.

2.1
Theoretical review
Action Research
With this purpose in mind, the following features of the action research approach are
worthy of consideration (Koshy, 2010: 1): Action research is a method used for improving
practice. It involves action, evaluation, and critical reflection and – based on the evidence
gathered – changes in practice are then implemented. He states that action research is a
disciplined process of inquiry conducted by and for those taking the action. The primary
198 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 reason for engaging in action research is to assist the “actor” in improving and/or refining his
or her actions.
Practitioners who engage in action research inevitably find it to be an empowering
experience. Action research has this positive effect for many reasons. Obviously, the most
important is that action research is always relevant to the participants. Relevance is
guaranteed because the focus of each research project is determined by the researchers, who
are also the primary consumers of the findings.
Perhaps even more important is the fact that action research helps educators be more
effective at what they care most about—their teaching and the development of their students.
Seeing students grow is probably the greatest joy educators can experience. When teachers
have convincing evidence that their work has made a real difference in their students' lives,
the countless hours and endless efforts of teaching seem worthwhile.
Figure 01 : Kemmis and McTaggart’s action research spiral
Kemmis and McTaggart (2000: 595) to describe it as participatory research. The
authors state that action research involves a spiral of self reflective cycles of:
• Planning a change.
• Acting and observing the process and consequences of the change.
• Reflecting on these processes and consequences and then replanning.
• Acting and observing.
• Reflecting.
• And so on …
Educational action research can be engaged in by a single teacher, by a group of
colleagues who share an interest in a common problem, or by the entire faculty of a school.
Whatever the scenario, action research always involves the same seven-step process. These
seven steps, which become an endless cycle for the inquiring teacher, are the following:
1.
Selecting a focus
2.
Clarifying theories
3.
Identifying research questions
4.
Collecting data
5.
Analyzing data
6.
Reporting results
7.
Taking informed action
2.2 Scientific approach
Regarding to classroom procedure, Fauziati (2015) states five steps to classroom
procedures. The first is observing. This includes activities such as reading, listening,
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 199 scrutinizing, and watching. The second step is questioning. This covers raising questions
about the information the students do not understand from what is observed. The next step is
gathering information or experimenting. This includes doing experiments, reading references
other than textbook, observing objects or events, or conducting interviews with resources
person. The forth is associating or information processing. This covers processing information
already gathered from the previous step or activities such gathering information and
observation. The last step is communicating. In this step covers some activities such as
delivering the observations, presenting the conclusion verbally or in written form.
2.3 Improvement
Improvement is from the word improved which means make or become better.
(Hornby, 1973: 494). So what was meant by improvement in this research
was the
improvement of the students learning achievement. According to Usman (1993), to know the
level of teaching learning achievement based on the curriculum implemented were as the
followings:
1) Maximum: If all the learning material is able to be mastered by the students.
2) Very good / optimum: If most of the learning material (85 % to 94 % is able to be
mastered by the students.
3) Good/ minimum: If most of the learning material (75 % to 84 %. is able to be
mastered by the students.
4) Fail:If less than 75 % of the learning material is able to be mastered by the students.
So what is meant by improvement in this action research was to create the best situation
for students to improve their ability to express and to response meaning in monolog text on
spoken and written narrative text accurately and acceptably through media “VCD Cutting”
to reach the minimal level of achievement (school passing grade).
2.4 “VCD Cutting”
“VCD Cutting” is the result of cutting film from VCD using VCD Cutter software.
VCD Cutter is a video editor which is used to make cuts in your VCD videos and MPG files.
VCD Cutter allows cutting clips and makes it possible to do it in a simple way as you will
only need to follow a few basic steps. The first thing need to do is to open the video file you
want to process. Secondly, mark off the start and end to initiate the process. Once have done
that, just need to save your work.
VCD Cutter stands out for its simplicity. That is why it comes with an intuitive and
clear interface integrated which facilitates the users’ work and enables them to process videos
and have control over the reproduction with the minimum effort. This software is able to work
with the different parts of project in an independent way since VCD Cutter is able to separate
and save audio and video. In order to visualize the progress of multimedia files, you can
preview the result of work thanks to its built-in screen. The good thing about this software is
that it is able to maintain the original VCD quality. This way, it will have the opportunity of
watching your final results without losing quality.
VCD Cutter is video editing software which is especially indicated for those users who
want to make cuts in their multimedia files with the minimum effort but without losing
efficiency and quality.
2.5 Teaching and Learning Narrative Text
Sardiman in Sudibyo (2006) said that teaching and learning means teaching and
learning activity in interactive way between a teacher and students to reach a learning
objective.
There are some definitions of narrative text. Narrative is a piece of text which tells a
story and, in doing so, entertains or informs the reader or listener. (Mark & Kathy Anderson 200 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Book2: 8) According to Tri Wiratno, Narrative text is a text functions a media to reconstruct
past experience. In general, narrative text is used to entertain readers or listeners by making
past events alive again. (Wiratno, 2003:13).
According to CBC 2006 narrative text is a text which has the following characteristics:
Social Function:
It is to amuse, entertain and to deal with actual or vicarious experience in different ways.
Narratives deal with problematic events which lead to crisis or turning point some kind,
which in turn find a resolution.
Generic Structure:
• ORIENTATION
It sets the scene (when & where) and introduces participants/character (who)
• COMPLICATION
It is a crisis arises, something happened unexpectedly
• RESOLUTION
The crisis is resolved, for better or for worse
• RE-ORIENTATION
It is closing to the narrative (optional)
Language Features of Narrative:
– Specific participants, for example, John and Harry rather than senior high school
students.
– Past tense form, because we are describing things that happened in the past.
– Words giving details of people, animals, places, things and actions such as adjectives
and adverbs.
– Connectors of time, such as last week, then, etc.
– Direct (the actual words spoken by a person), and reported or indirect speech (the
meaning of what the person said without using their actual words.) (Kurikulum
2006,2003:80)
Teaching and learning narrative text in this research means teaching and learning activity
in interactive way between a teacher and students to reach learning objective. It is to express
and to response meaning in monolog text on spoken and written narrative text accurately and
acceptably.
2.6 The Meaning of Media
Media or medium means by which something is done. (Hornby, 1973: 610). So in this
research media means any possible thing which is able to deliver learningmessages in a
communication so that it can stimulate students to learn. (Kukuh, 2003). The media which is
used in an instruction should be interactive whichmeans media as instructional message
deliverer involved students actively in the process of communication. As a result, interactive
instructional media can be used to improve learning models. For example, by giving a model
of a narrative text students can create other narratives.
The term audio visual means all materials which present pictures and sound that can
be combined as follows:
a. Paintings and recorded human sound.
b. Paintings and music,
c. Photos, sound, music and human sound.
d. Film with narration, sound effect and music.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 201 2.7
The need of media in teaching and learning process
In teaching learning process, there will be a communication between a teacher
message source and students message receivers. To plan teaching and learning activity a
teacher should choose media which is really effective and efficient.
When the media is an interactive one, the students are not only as listeners or viewers,
but also involved actively in the learning process. Moreover, media can overcome the
teacher’s lack for example it can present sound effect, pictures and motion so that the message
delivered will be more interesting and real. The weakness of media is that it cannotreplace
teachers’ function.
Media will help teachers in teaching and learning process such as:
a. Media audio with the native sound can help teachers and students pronounce difficult
letters and words correctly.
b. Media help teachers and students pronounce sentences and certain expressions using
correct intonation.
c. Modeling text helps students use grammar and cultural setting correctly.
d. Media presents information or message consistently and can be repeated whenever it
is needed.
e. Information and Technology Media (radio, TV, Internet/Computer) presents
information or messages which overcome the limitation of time and place at once.
There are some choices of media which can be used in the English teaching and learning
activities:
1. Tape recorder and cassette with native speakers is very good for modeling
pronunciations and intonation.
2. Film, very well for modeling situation.
3. LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), is a practical hard ware and more interesting than
Video, OHP. LCD is connected to computer using VCD player and camera so that it
can be watched by the audience in the classroom.
4. IT (Information Technology) or ICT (Information Communication Technology) is a
multi media which can be improved through computer and internet where every
person can possibly access learning information without the limitation of time and
place.
The usage of media in teaching and learning process at school to increase the quality
of education has often been done but not all schools can do that. This is because of the
condition of the school and the teachers’ lack of competence in instructional media.
From the explanation about media, the writer chose media IT, computer and LCD with
Microsoft Office Power Point and VCD Cutter software. Therefore, the writer used available
instructional source (By Utilization)and design instructional sourcewith Power Point and
VCD Cutting (By Design).
3.
Method
3.1 Participants
The subjects of the research were the students ofgrade VII class G. The reason why this
class was used as the sample of the research because the students in this class had got the
lesson about Information Technology (IT) so that it was easy for them to insert VCD cutting
in their presentation with Microsoft Office Power Point.
3.2 Data collection
`
To collect the data the writer designed the following instruments:
1. Paper-pencil test.
2. Performance assessment
202 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 3. Questionnaire
4. Systematic observation
3.3 Data Analysis
The model to analyze the data is as the following:

Model of Miles & Hubberman (1992: 20) above describes data reduction (sorting of
data is important, relevant, and meaningful from useless data), a dish descriptive (narrative,
visual images, tables) with a groove serving a systematic and logical inference from the
results of which are presented (Action Research impact and effectiveness).
4.
Result
The writer would like to report the result of the observation of the teaching and learning
narrative text. The main point of the action research is in the cycle 3. It is the end of the
research. The followings are the explanation of the cycle 3.
a. Planning and the preparation of the action.
1. The stage of the teaching and learning cycle 3had been constructed that was the stage
of Independent of the Text.
2. The lesson plan for cycle 3 had been constructed.
3. The observation paper for the activity in cycle 3 had been constructed.
b. The implementation of the action
The implementation of the action in cycle 3:
1. Had implemented the lesson plan cycle 3.
2. Had implemented. “Independent Construction of the Text”.
3. had observed classroom students’ activities
4. had implemented Post-Test
c. Observation
The writer had done the stage of “Independent Construction of the Text.” The students
wrote a narrative text individually. First of all the students chose and planned a new topic
or about a story that they had read, or a story based on the film he/ she watched. Then he/
she made a draft of a narrative text and made a review if the writing matched the generic
structure of a narrative, swapped the writing with a friend to check whether it was correct
or not, or gave other opinion, consulted it with the teacher and finally the student rewrote
the draft that had been consulted with the teacher. The best writing would be put on the
flannel board in the class room, wall magazine or school magazine, “Image”.
On the last cycle the students did the post-test. The result of the observation of cycle 3
was as follows:

PRE-TES, CYCLE 1, CYCLE 2, CYCLE 3 (POST TES) SCORES
That is the chart of pre-test, cycle 1, cycle 2, cycle 3 or post test. From the chart, itcan
be seen the difference among them. In the pre-test, there are 2 passed students and 28 failed
students. In the cycle 1, there are 20 passed students and 10 failed students. Then, in the cycle
2, there are 23 passed students and 7 failed students. In the cycle 3 or post-test, there are 28
passed students and 2 failed students.
d. Reflection.
From the observation paper cycle 3 and graph 5 could be reflected that the individual
average scores of writing  school passing grade 64 % this means that it fulfilled the
achievement indicator. And it also showed the improvement from the pre – test only 2
students passed or 7,3 %, in cycle 1 there were 20 students passed or 67 % , in cycle 2
there were 23 students passed or 77 % and in cycle 3 there were 28 students passed or 93
% this means that the result showed the quality assurance of the action research.

Discussion
There are some advantages of English in the world. English may not be the most spoken
language in the world, but it is the official language in a large number of countries. It is
estimated that the number of people in the world that use in English to communicate on a
regular basis is 2 billion. Second, English is the dominant business language and it has
become almost a necessity for people to speak English if they are to enter a global workforce,
research from all over the world shows that cross-border business communication is most
often conducted in English. Its importance in the global market place therefore cannot be
understated, learning English really can change your life.
Many of the world’s top films, books and music are published and produced in English.
Therefore by learning English you will have access to a great wealth of entertainment and will
be able to have a greater cultural understanding. The last, most of the content produced on the
internet (50%) is in English. So knowing English will allow you access to an incredible
amount of information which may not be otherwise available.
In a daily life, there are some problems in writing or speaking English teaching.
a. Student's won't talk or say anything
b. When students work in pairs or groups they just end up chatting in their own language
c. When all the students speak together it gets too noisy and out of hand and I lose
control of the classroom

Conclusion
The conclusions that could be drawn from this action research were as follows:
a. The usage of media VCD Cutting effective, interesting, and enjoyable and was able to
help the process of teaching and learning on narrative text so that the students could be
able to improve their competence to communicate in English, to express and response
the meaning of monolog text by using spoken and written modes accurately and
acceptably in narrative text.
b. In cycle 3 the individual average score of writing was 14,9 or 70 %  school passing
grade 64 %. This showed that it fulfilled the indicator of the achievement.
c. The cognitive scores showed the improvement from the result of the pre – test there
were only 2 students failed or 7,3 %, in cycle 1, there were 20 students passed 67 %
, in cycle 2 there were 23 students passed or 7 % and in cycle 3 therewere 28 students
passed or 93 % This showed that it fulfilled the indicator of a research result and
showed the quality assurance of the action research.
On the basis of the conclusions above, the writer offered the following suggestions:
a. To teachers, especially English teachers should try to look for innovation in
implementing the teaching and learning English by using suitable learning media
and Information Technology (IT) and media ”VCD Cutting” so that it could be used
to overcome the problems faced by the students.
b. To students, they should use Information Technology (IT) and media “VCD
Cutting” to overcome the problem of studying English especially on narrative text.

Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 TRANSLATION ANALYSIS OF INDEPENDENT CLAUSE
IN THE HUNGER GAMES AND ITS TRANSLATION

Graduate Program of Language Study
Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta
Abstract
This study examines the types of independent clause found in the novel of The Hunger
Games. The study aims at classifying the independent clause in compound sentence
found in the novel. The data are in the form of independent clause. The data are
collected from both English novel and its translation by using documentation method.
The writer applies comparison method in analyzing the data. The result of the study
shows that from 67 data, there are 64 data or 95,5% data of affirmative sentence
translated into affirmative sentence, 2 data or 2,98% data of affirmative sentence that
is not translated, 1 data or 1,49% data of interrogative translated into interrogative.
Keywords: translation study, independent clause, The Hunger Games
A. Introduction
Translation is the solution in understanding the books or other materials or even the conferences as
the supporting sources for the development of technology and science which are very important for
people in the world.It is an activity which uses language as an object. Based on the researcher
experience, translation work is really important for people in understanding knowledge. Translation is
not an easy work, since each language has its own rules and system. Besides, translation involves a
skill, an art, and science. In this case, the researcher focuses the study on the translation of
independent clause. It is because independent clause is very general in sentence. The English
independent clause that contains both a subject and a verb and can stand alone as a sentence can be
translated into Indonesian in different order. When the readers read this novel or other novel, they
usually don’t care about the structure in the novel. They don’t know those kinds of compound
sentences that the writer uses and doesn’t understand how to form a compound sentence in a novel.
Having such problem, the researcher thinks that it is necessary to study the strategy used by the
translator in transferring independent clause in compound sentence.
Actually, there are many studies dealing with translation analysis, but the study of translation that
deals with the strategy of the translator is relatively small. Some of the studies are in line to the
classification of the variation of simple sentence and describing the equivalence of the translation in
simple sentence (Rahmah, 2012); the classification and description of sentences and clauses (Pasaribu,
2002); the analysis of clause in academic text (Brooks, 2010); the analysis of nominal clauses and
interrogative clauses (Farrokh, 2012); the translation shift of generic-specific (Sasmi, 2008). Few
published studies that focuses on the translation analysis of independent clause related to the strategy
used by the translator. This research is different from the previous researches in which it studies
different object and subject. But those researches become the reference to the study of independent
clause in compound sentence in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone and its translation.
The followings are phenomena that relate to the study.
B. Review of Related Literature
The writer would like to present the study by reviewing the related literature first. The literature
highlights the notion of translation, translation process, and types of sentences (in Indonesian
sentences and English sentences)
1. Notion of Translation
210 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 211 Translation is the process of transferring message from source language (SL) to the target
language (TL). There are many experts state about translation. Catford (1969: 20) states that
“translation is the replacement of textual material in one language (SL) by equivalent translation in
another language (TL)”. He only tends to textual material in translation. Meanwhile, Nida (1969: 12)
states that “translation consist only in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural
equivalent of the source language message, first in terms of meaning and secondly in terms of style”.
Nida (1969: 12) points the translation is equivalence both source language and target language in
terms of meaning and style.
Bell (1991: 5) defines that translation is the expression in another language (or source language) in
what has been expressed in another target language, preserving semantic and stylistic equivalents.
Furthermore, Bell (1991: 6) suggests another definition of translation. He says translation is the
replacements of representation of a text in one language by a representation of an equivalent text in
second language.
From all definitions above, it can be concluded that translation is a process of transfering message
(ideas and thought) from the source language (SL) to be equivalence with the target language (TL).
Translator should have knowledge both culture of source language (SL) and target language (TL).
2. Translation Process
According to Soemarno (1997: 13) in Sutopo and Candraningrum (2001: 8), “ process of
translation are some steps that should be done by the translator before beginning his work on
translation field”. He stated that the steps mentioned are: (1) analyzing, (2) transfering, and (3)
restructuring.
Nida (1974: 80) in Sutopo and Dewi Candraningrum (2001: 9) also states that there are three steps
of translation process. Those are: analyze, transfer and restructuring.
Source Language
Receptor Language

classifying general ideas of the SL text and identifying
possible problem emerged due to the devegence grammatical pattern between SL and TL. The
diagram shows that, the reader will get a perception that after having the text of the source language,
the translator should seize the text in whole. It is called analyzing step. According to Sutopo and
Candraningrum (2001: 10):
The translator should pay this attention on the tittle, paragraph used, clause, idioms,
collocations, proverbs and the like. The translator has to try to get the meaning of the very
difficult vocabulary, strange words, correlation each sentence grammatically. The
translator also looks for the meaning of the words in lexical, grammatical, situational,
textual or contextual meaning. In this step, the translator should pay attention on
semantics, morphology, syntactic or phonemics, point of view attentively. Usually the
translator uses the fieldstone for doing this anayzing process.
After analyzing the text and understand the message, the translator transfers the message from the
source language into target language. This process is discussing the result of translation that
transferred from the source language into target language. In transfering the message, a translator
needs much knowledge to get the equivalence meaning.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 212 The last process is restructuring. In restructuring the message, a translator makes a sentence
arrangement as the result by using the style of language that presented in the target language (TL).
One thing that needs to pay attention is the final message must be in accordance with the TL and fully
acceptable in the receptor language.
From the explanation above, it can be seen that there is a complex process in translation. During
the process, a translator is expected to understand the message of SL correctly and then transfer it into
TL properly. In making good translation, the translator does not only need to pay attention to the
message of SL but also the restructuring it good target language.
3. Comparison of English and Indonesian Sentence
In this part, the writer wants to discuss English Sentence and Indonesian Sentence. In English
Sentence, the writer also discusses the classification of sentence and the type of sentence by its
predication.
An English sentence has two parts: a subject and a predicate. Frank (1972: 220) gives explanation
about subject and predicate as follows. The subject includes the noun or pronoun that tells what the
subject is about. The predicate includes the verb that describes what the subject is doing.
Frank (1972: 220) defines “a sentence as a full predication containing a subject plus predicate with
finite verb”.
According to Nordquist (2010), sentence is the largest independent unit of grammar; it begins with
a capital letter and ends with a period, question mark or exclamation point. The sentence is
traditionally defined as a word or group of words that expresses a complete idea and that includes a
subject and a verb.
According to Mas’ud (1987: 1-2), “sentence is group of word that has at least one subject and one
predicate, and also consists of perfect meaning”.
Example:
Sheis singing Batak’s song.
S
P
Then Mas’ud also states “ if the structure of a word is changed and does not give a perfect
meaning, so this group of word is not a sentence”.
Frank (1972: 220) states that traditional grammar defines a sentence in one of two ways; by meaning
and by function.
According to this definition, a sentence is defined by its meaning. A sentence is a “complete
thought” (Frank, 1972: 220). Such a definition is inadequate, however, because of the vagueness of the
term “complete thought” (Frank, 1972: 220).
Division of sentence by its function means that a sentence is defined by structural functions of
subject and predicate (Frank, 1972: 220). Frank 1972: 220 also states that:
This definition is more satisfactory because it is actually possible to identify the structural
functions of subject and predicate in a sentence. The definition we should like to offer here
includes both functional and formal characteristics of a sentence: A sentence is a ful
predication containing a subject plus a predicate with a finite verb. Its arrangement my be
symbolyzed by such formulas as S V O (Subject + Verb + Object), N1 V N2 (Noun + Verb
+ Noun), of NP + VP (Noun Phrase + Verb Phrase)
Examples:
The trainarrived shortly.
S
P
Rambofights the troops.
S
P
Each of those sentences has the three requirements for a sentence: (1) it has a subject (noun or
pronoun); (2) it has a predicate (verb or verb phrase); (3) it expresses a complete thought.
A sentence may also consist of compound subject or compound predicate. A compound subject
has two more subjects that have the same predicate. A compound predicate has two or more verbs that
have the same subject (Thornburn, 1987: 14 in Erlangga, 2008: 16)
Examples:
Rangga and his friendcame to the club yesterday.

Frank (1972: 220) also states the classification of sentences. Those classification are (1)
declarative sentence (statement); (2) interrogative sentence; (3) imperative sentence; and (4)
exclamatory sentence.
In declarative sentence, the subject and predicate have normal word order. the sentence ends with
a period in writing and a drop in pitch in the speech Frank (1972: 221).
Example:
The child ate his dinner.
She is pregnant.
The man stands in front of the class.
In an introgative sentence, the subject and auxiliary are often reversed. The sentence ends with a
question mark in writing. In the spoken language, most yes-no questions end with rise pitch, most
interrogative – word questions end with fall pitch (Frank, 1972: 221).
Examples:
Did the child eat his dinner?
Do you remember me?
Does he give you the apple?
In an imperative sentence, only the predicate is expressed. The simple form of the verb is used.
The imperative sentence ends with a period in written language and a drop in pitch in spoken.
Examples:
Eat your dinner! (command)
Could you eat your dinner? (request)
Could you please close the door? (request)
Most of the exclamatory sentences consist of what or how plus a part of a predicate. The
excalamatory phrase is followed by the subject and it is balance with predicate. In written language,
the exclamatory sentence ends with an exclamatory mark (1972: 221). Then, Frank 1972: 221 also
states that in spoken language, the important word in exclamatory phrase may receive a stronger
degree of stress and be accompanied by a rise pitch.
Example:
What a good dinner it was!
What a wonderful song it is!
What an important file it was!
Then, Frank, 1972: 222 states, the classification of sentence by its predication: (1) simple
sentence; (2) compound sentence; (3) complex sentence; and (4) compound-complex sentence.
Simple sentence has only one full subject and predicate in the form of an independent clause.
Example:
I make a delicious cake.
John takes a short course.
Rachel brings a big book.
Compound sentence has two or more full predications in the form of independent clauses.
Example:
Devi makes a delicious cake and she will sell it in a market.
John takes the bag and he went just now.
She goes to mecca for hajj and she brings a lot of souvenirs.
To coordinate two or more parts of a sentence is to give them the same rank and role by making
them grammatically similar. The fact that several ideas and actions of roughly equal weight are joined
in one sentence indicates a connection among them and the use of one conjunction rather than another
show just what the connection is. Further, when some sentences are compound and others are not, the
variety of sentence length and structure helps to keep the reader’s attention. Frank (1972:01 in
Erlangga, 2008: 20) states that a compound sentence is a sentence contains of one or more sentences
joined into one by punctuation of semicolon, a conjunctive adverb and a coordinate or subordinate
conjunction. It can be said that compound sentence is made up of two or more simple sentences in the
form of independent clauses.
The airplane is expensive. (Simple Sentence)
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 214 The sport car is cheap. (Simple Sentence)
The airplane is expensive but the sport car is cheap.
The combination of those two simple sentences becomes a compound sentence. A compound
sentence can be joined by coordinate or subordinate conjunction, punctuation of semicolon, and a
conjunctive adverb. Examples:
a) Joined by coordinate or subordinate conjunction.
Example:
Devi is a smart student and she gets a good mark.
b) Joined by punctuation of semicolon.
Example:
Devi is a smart student; she gets a good mark.
c) Joined by conjunctive adverb.
Example:
Devi is a smart student, therefore she get a good mark.
Langan (2003: 147 in Erlangga, 2008: 21) states that coordinate and subordinate conjunction are
ways of showing the exact relationship of ideas within a sentence. Through subordination, it shows
that the one idea is less important than another. Whensubordinated, people use dependent words like
when although, while, because, after, etc. Through coordination, it shows that ideas are equal
importance (Langan, 2003:147 in Erlangga, 2008: 21). When coordinatied, people use the word and,
but, for, or, so, yet, etc. People distinguish the coordination from subordination.
A coordinate process gives the balance of writing by bringing together related independent
clauses. Subordination involves using the right word or mark of punctuation to show different
relationships between ideas. Each of the coordinate conjunction has a different meaning and function.
There are several coordinate conjunctions according to Langan (2003:537 in Erlangga 2008: 21):

Complex sentence has two or more full predications. One of these is an independent clause (main
clause) that is similar to the form of simple sentence, and one or more of these are dependent clauses
(subordinate clauses).
Example:
Devi who makes a delicious cake will sell it in a market.
Compound – complex sentence contains two or more independent clauses and one or more
independent clauses.
Example:
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 216 Devi makes a delicious cake and she will sell it in a market after her son comes
In the Indonesian sentence, experts in Indonesian grammar make grouping a variety of sentence.
There are differences in the grouping of the sentences because of the basis used to devide or classify
sentences in Indonesian terms, very different. According to Fokker in Markhamah (1972: 27),
“pembagian kalimat itu berdasarkan struktur fungsional kalimat atau dari bangun kalimat. Kedua,
pembagian kalimat itu berdasarkan intonasinya. Description here is also the intent of the dibision
based on the wake of the sentence, based on the type sentence unity, the second, until the ninth. The
linkage of these sentence type can be seen on the functional structure of subject and predicate. There is
another explanation of the differences previously stated sentence. According to Markhamah (2009: 5052) kalimat itu dibahi menjadi dua dasar. Kedua dasar itu adalah bentuk dan makna. Berdasarkan
bentuknya, kalimat dibedakan dua macam, yakni kalimat tunggal dan kalimat majemuk. Kalimat
tunggal terdiri satu klausa, yang terdiri atas satu klause. Konstituen setiap kalimat terdiri unsur
kalimat seperti subyek dan predikat. Contohnya:
1) Dia akan pergi.
2) Guru matematika kami akan dikirim ke luar negeri.
The so called compound sentence consist of two or more clauses. The first clause is called
independent clause which can stand alone as sentence. Meanwhile, the second clause is called
dependent clause which cannot stand alone as a sentence. There is a relationship between independent
and dependent clause. By its nature there are two kinds of clause relations, namely relations of
coordination and subordination relationships. Both of these relationship can be demonstrated as
follows example of Markhamah’s theory:
1) Ayah memakai baju dan ibu menyiapkan makan.
2) Dia mengatakan bahwa anaknya akan datang.
3) Paman yang tinggal di Bogor datang kemarin.
Based on the theories above, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between
English and Indonesian language. The difference lies on the predicate of sentence. In English, the
predicate of sentence must be a verb. It can be a full verb such as verb 1 and verb 2; it can be a modal
or other auxalary verb. While in Indonesian language the predicate of a sentence can be in the form of
verb, adjective, preposition or even a noun phrase.
Then, the research also deals with a clause. A clause is a group of words with its own subject and
verb. An independent (main) clause is a complete sentence; a dependent (subordinate) clause is part of
a sentence. A dependent clause cannot stand alone (Rozakies, 2003: 152).
Dealing with the definition of clause, Frank (1972: 223) states that
from the point of view of usage, little needs to be said about the independent clauses used
alone in a simple sentence. It is when clauses are combined because a relationship exists
between them that questions of usage arise
Examples:
She helped my mom.
Until they come.
Both of those examples are clause because each of them has a subject and a predicate. The first
clause has a subject (she) and a predicate (helped). The second clause has a subject (they) and a
predicate (come). Each of them is different, the first clause is independent clause and the second is
dependent clause. A clause is defined as independent clause and dependent clause. An independent
clause has one subject part and one predicate part, it expresses a complete thought and it can stand
alone (Thornburn, 1987:134). We can say that independent clause is also a simple sentence.
Example:
Yoan followed the exam.
The subject part is (Yoan) and the predicate part is (followed the exam). It expresses a complete
thought and can stand alone. A dependent clause has a subject part and predicate part but it does not
express a complete thought. It is not a complete sentence and it can not stand alone (Thornburn,
1987:134).
Example:
Therefore she left me.
The subject part is (she) and the predicate part is (left me). It can not stand alone and it must be
combined with an independent clause to make a complete thought.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 217 C. Research Method
Basically, research is the process of solving the problem and method is important in carrying the
research. In doing the research, the writer uses descriptive qualitative study, intended to classify the
object of the research. The data are in the forms of English compund sentences containing independent
clause and their translation into Indonesian found in source novel and the translated one. The data
source of this research is novel of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone written by Jeanne Keathleen
Rowling and its translation Harry Potter dan Batu Bertuah that is translated by Listiana Srisanti. The
technique of analyzing data is comparing TL text and SL text. This is counducted as (1) reading both
original and the translations Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone and Harry Potter dan Batu
Bertuah, (2) Underlying the English independent clause in compound sentences and their translation
(3) writing them down on the papers (4) gives codes of the data. The technique analyzing data used in
this research is comparing between source language and target language as (1) Classifying the data by
giving code as explained, (2) determining the types of English and Indonesian independent clause in
compound sentence, (3) classifying the strategies used by the translator in transfering the independent
clause, (4) classifying the equivalent and non equivalent translation, (5) drawing conclusion.
D. Research Finding
There are several research findings that would be presented in this part. The classifications of
independent clause in compound sentence are as follows.
1. Affirmative Translated into Affirmative
In this research, the writer finds 63 data which are classified into affirmative that are translated
into affirmative sentence.
01/THG/ENG-SL/IND-TL
SL
: She must have had bad dreams and climbed in with our mother.
TL
:
Dia pasti mengalami mimpi buruk dan naik ke ranjang ibu kami.
The datum above shows that the English sentence which is considered as affirmative sentence is
translated into affirmative sentence. In the English sentence, the first independent clause is She must
have had bad dreams. It is connected with the conjunction and to connect the second independent
clause climbed in with our mother. The coordinate conjunction and aims at adding the idea. The
marker of a main clause is the existance of subject part and predicate part. In the first English main
clause, the word she indicates the subject of the sentence, while, must have had refers to the predicate
of the sentence. In the second independent clause, the word climbed functions as predicate of the
sentence, then, in with our mother functions as adverb of place. The above English affirmative
sentence is also translated into affirmative sentence: Dia pasti mengalami mimpi buruk dan naik ke
ranjang ibu kami. The first Indonesian independent clause is Dia pasti mengalami mimpi buruk. Then,
it is also connected by coordinate conjunction and that aims at adding the idea of the sentence. The
word Dia functions as the subject of the first Indonesian independent clause. Then, the predicate of the
sentence is pasti mengalami. The second independent clause shows the same thing that naik refers to
the verb of the sentence. Furthermore, ke ranjang Ibu indicates an adverb of place.
2. Affirmative that is not Translated
Sometimes, the translator does not translate the English sentence that aims at making the
translation effective in Indonesian way. But, the translation should meet the equivalence of translation.
08/THG/ENG-SL/IND-TL
SL
: Say you are poor and starving as we were.
TL
:
The datum number 08/THG/ENG-SL/IND-TL shows that the English compound sentence is not
translated into Indonesian. The English sentence is categorized as affirmative sentence. The
independent clauses is connected with coordinate conjunction and. The coordinate conjunction and
aims at adding the idea of sentence. Although it is not translated into Indonesian sentence, it does not
affect the whole idea that is intended by the writer. Since, the idea of the sentence itself has been
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 218 compiled into the next sentence. Sometimes, the translator does not translate the English sentence in
order to make the translation effective in Indonesian way.
3. Interrogative Translated into Interrogative
In this part, the researcher would like to present that interrogative sentence is translated into
interrogative sentence.
08/THG/ENG-SL/IND-TL
SL
: Could Gale and I have been eating blackberries only this morning?
TL
:
Apa benar aku dan Gale baru tadi pagi makan blackberry?
The above sentence shows that interrogative sentence is translated into interrogative sentence. The
sentence is considered as compound sentence that consists of two independent clauses. The first
English independent clause is Could Gale have been eating blackberries only this morning? and the
second independent clause I have been eating blackberries only this morning?. The English sentence
is translated into Apa benar aku dan Gale baru tadi makan Blackberry?. In the English sentence, the
words Gale and I indicates a subject of the sentence, while, could have been eating refers to the verb
of the sentence. The word Blackberry is categorized as object and this morning refers to adverbial
phrase.
E. Discussion
There are several types of independent clause in English. Some of them are affirmative and
interrogative. At least, those are found in the novel. The writer argues that the translation is considered
as equivalence translation, since the translator transfers the English novel equivalently (without
omitting or changing the main idea of the novel). The translation should meet the equivalence as stated
by Nida (1969: 22) “there are two types of equivalence, namely formal equivalence and dynamic
equivalence. Formal correspondence focuses attention on the message itself, in both form and content,
unlike dynamic equivalence which is based upon the principle of equivalent effect”.
Both category of the equivalence have met to the translation of the novel. Maybe, the translator
would like to present the novel in the sense of the original novel but still in the feeling of Indonesian
way. Since the independent clause exists in the compound sentence, so, there should be coordinate
conjunction to connect the independent clause. Langan (2003: 147 in Erlangga, 2008: 21) states that
co-ordinate and sub-ordinate conjunction are ways of showing the exact relationship of ideas within a
sentence.
The analysis of clause also deals with Frank’s (1972: 223) states that from the point of view of
usage, little needs to be said about the independent clauses used alone in a simple sentence. It is when
clauses are combined because a relationship exists between them that questions of usage arise.
The mini research can contribute in the arena of the teaching learning process that deals with
independent clause and its translation. Since, the area of the translation itself shows that independent
clause can be translated into several types of independent clause.
F. Conclusion
The result of the study shows that from 67 data, there are 64 data or 95,5% data of affirmative
sentence translated into affirmative sentence, 2 data or 2,98% data of affirmative sentence that is not
translated, 1 data or 1,49% data of interrogative translated into interrogative.
Concluding the findings, the researcher would like to argue that in translating those kinds of
independent clause should be deals with the equivalent and natural.

Abstract
In the whole part of the world, some people could speak more than two languages. This
phenomenon is called by Multilingual Repertoire. Multilingual Repertoire in the students of PBI in
STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro, Muhammadiyah University, and IAIM NU Metro greatly effects to the
students’ speaking, especially in pronunciation, style, grammar, and vocabularies. Therefore, this
research attempt to know the effect of students’ multilingual repertoire in speaking English. The
learners’ subject in this research are 15 students in English language program from three universities
in Metro. The data will be achieved through Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The examination
of the collected data reveals that 40% of the students are able to speak English, but they speak in
Javanese dialect and style, 20% of the students speak in Sundanese style, 13% of the students speak in
Lampungnese style, 13% of the students speak in Padangnese style, 7% of the students speak in
Melayu style, and the rest is 7% of the students speak in Balinese style. Meanwhile, some of the
students need a repetition in speaking skill to make it clear and with makes some grammatical errors.
In this regard, the students should be careful in grammatical of each language when they are speaking.

1. Introduction
Indonesia has long history of globalization for which the development of multilingual
society has inevitable. In such a globalized region, a multilingual society have been developed
due to migration, cultural contact, and commerce. Then, the circumstances of language
system in Indonesia will be changed from mastering of two languages (bilingual) to be three
languages (multilingual) (Putu and Rohmadi, 2010: 56).
In the last ten years, many researchers have research the use of multilingual repertoire in
writing. They have analyzed how multilingual repertoire has influenced the students’
multilingual repertoire or autism writing using some strategies. Most studies explain that
many people have gained the multilingual repertoire through the process of their reading and
writing tradition they have developed (e.g. Jacobs, 2008; Cihon, 2007; Zacharias, 2012;
Bedamatta, 2013; Ludi, 2003; Ehsanzadeh, 2012; Haque, 2011). Most others explain the
multilingual repertoire in autism information development about the formal language
effectively (e.g Carbone, 2010; Emily, 2007; Cobb, 2002; Lee, 2005; Helderman, 2006). Most of
them focus on multilingual repertoire by the learners or autism writing product.
220 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 221 Jacobs (2008) analyzes Instant Messaging (IM) in the students’ repertoire development.
Next, Cihon (2007) emphasizes some methods and strategies which involve individual
behavior in learning intra verbal repertoire by precision teaching (PT) response. Zacharias
(2012) indicates to what extent the increasing of 30 students in the process of English
language learning as the foreign language as well as learn about the west culture. Bedamatta
(2013) concerns on multilingual education in teaching learning process through mother
tongue and second language. Ludi (2003) describes the usage of multilingual repertoire in the
context of communication inter culture in the society. Ehsanzadeh (2012) defines some
technique to improve the students’ vocabulary by using the lexical repertoire in reading.
Haque (2011) concerns in language practices based on the Immigrant society in India. The
purpose is to know to what extent of the individual repertoire based on the context of
immigrant society in India.
The aims of this research are; first, to observe the factors of multilingual repertoire effect
in speaking. Second, to find the field description of the reasoning based on advantages
multilingual repertoire in the PBI students at three universities. Third, to investigate the field
phenomena of the pronunciation and grammar errors in speaking based on multilingual
students. An individual multilingual repertoire gives a great effect toward the students’
speaking skill in English language learning.
2. Background
2.1.
Multilingualism
In many parts of the Western world is often assumed that it to be a world-wide
phenomenon, to the extent that bilingual and multilingual individuals may appear to be
unusual. The effect of this phenomenon is such people are likely to be immigrants, visitors, or
children of mixed marriages. As a result some people is fluent in several languages although
they are not the real native of that language (Wardaugh, 2006: 96).
Nowadays, the fact that there are 3.000 to 4.000 languages spoken in the world. In other
words, the fact that there are about 150 countries indicates how multilingual applied in the
societies (Carol, 1988: 51). Multilingualism is the best way to identify a person by his or her
language, because language is one of identity of people. Therefore, the studying of two or
more languages thus provides a rich field for sociolinguistics study (Spolsky, 1998: 51).
2.2.
Multilingual Repertoire
In multilingual countries there is enough evidence of a child growing up with two or more
languages. Even in dominant monolingual countries such instances are not rare. Hymes (in
Haque 2011) argues that repertoire as a set of ways of speaking which consist of speech style
and context. Multilingual repertoire phenomena which commonly happen in the society is
effect of the individual languages. Many reasons make one mastering the repertoire in his life.
222 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 The first reason is to implement freely communication. For generally, language practices of a
group of people who have an opportunity to interact and share not just a single language is
able to build a close relation of each other (Spolsky, 1998: 25).
Recently, multiculturalism in Indonesia leads us to the multilingual society. Thus,
multilingual repertoire occur in many aspects, they are; in education, entertainment, and daily
lives. Specifically, multilingual repertoire is not only useful things, but also an over plus skill
for someone. Multilingual repertoire can be regarded as an important phenomenon in this
globalized era. The intricacies of the multilingual repertoire learners’ are often the results of
interference from the previous learned languages of spelling, pronunciation and grammar.
In Indonesia, the students is seldom speak English orally as their communicative
interaction in society. Because the student sometimes mispronounce words such as determine
and bought, which are respectively incorrectly pronounced as [dit3: rmain] and [baut]. The
students predictably make grammatical errors such as in the formation of yes no question and
degrees of comparisons for adjectives or adverbs. The students might produce phrase more
large because they find that the comparison forms for the adjectives beautiful is more
beautiful (Alip, 2003).
Therefore, Annamalai in (Haque, 2011: 29) examines that the languages not to be in conflict
with an individual identity. But, one language is for ethnic identity, another for business
transactions, for official dealings, for entertainment, for rituals and so on.
2.3.
Speaking
Speaking tends to be getting something done, exploring ideas, working out of the world, or
simply being together (Jones, 1996: 12). People can improve the fluency and the power of the
speech by practicing. Pronunciation is also the important things. Because pronunciation is the
act of articulating a sound or word (Brown, 2001: 267). The listener can understand the meaning
of the word that the speakers says. In teaching speaking, the teacher hopes that the students can
practice the pronunciation in the class. By this, the teacher know the students speaking ability.
Some roles to speak well are read, listen, think and practice. Then, in speaking, commonly
people have some problems in their speaking performance which called by error. On the other
hand, error is something in a piece of work that is incorrect which cause problems or effect the
result of something, something unintentionally done wrong as a result of poor judgment, an
opinion or believe that is contrary to fact or to establish doctrine.
Lead to speaking, some of errors may occur in pronunciation, spelling, morphology,
syntax, and semantics. In the grammatical analysis there are some classification of errors
which consider in language, by the classification, it can see the error of grammar usage and
know the specific of error.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 223 2.4.
Sentence
Sentence is largest purely grammatical unit in a language. Indeed, there are larger
linguistic units than sentences. That is paragraphs, conversations and discourses. In spite of
that, these are not stronger linked by purely grammatical means (Peter, 2007: 257). Instead,
sentence is the rigid grammatical rules which integrates the largest linguistic unit. In most
linguists’ perspectives, a sentence is an abstract linguistic object and it particularly puts
together entirely in accordance with the rules for constructing sentences in a language.
As the example, a sentence colorless green ideas sleep furiously, it makes no sense at all, it
is constructed in accordance with all the rules for making sentences in English, and hence it is
a grammatical (well-formed) sentence of English. A further point is that a sentence is not just
a string of words rather than a grammatical (syntactic) structure assigned to it (Peter, 2007:
258).
The essential difference between sentences and utterances is that sentences are abstract, not
tied to contexts, whereas utterances are identified by their contexts. The essential difference
between sentences and utterances is that sentences are abstract, not tied to contexts, whereas
utterances are identified by their contexts. This is also the main way of distinguishing
between semantics and pragmatics. In other words, semantics deals with meaning and there is
no context to consider. Nevertheless, if there is a context to be brought into consideration
means that it engages in pragmatics (Peter, 2007: 6).
A sentence with more than two structural interpretations is said to be multiply ambiguous.
An analysis which demonstrates the ambiguity in a sentence is said to disambiguate the
sentence. Ambiguity which does not arise from the grammatical analysis of a sentence, but is
due solely to the alternative meanings of an individual lexical item, is referred to as lexical
ambiguity, e.g. I found the table fascinating (=‘object of furniture’ or ‘table of figures’ – see
polysemy). How the brain resolves ambiguities is an important goal of psycholinguistic
research. The meaningful parts of a sentence are clauses, phrases and words; and the
meaningful parts of words are morphemes.
3. Method
3.1.
Learner subject
Here, the participants have been chosen from the students of English Education Study
Program that had learned sociolinguistics subject and have different ethnics in Universities of
Metro. There were 15 consisting of 10 females and 5 males. Most of them were in eight semester and
others are in sixth semester. In this case, the students’ abilities in speaking English were low and high
because of the effect of their local languages.
The ethnic languages that analyzed are Javanese, Lampungnese, Padangnese, Balinese, Sundanese
and Melayu. By this, 5 students are Javanese, 2 Lampungnese, 3 Padangnese, 1 Balinese, 3 Sundanese
and Melayu. Their multilingual repertoire influence their speaking skill, especially in grammar,
phonetic and phonology.
224 3.2.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Method of data collection
Actually, this research is qualitative. Creswell (2003: 182) defines that the researcher made
interpretation of the data. There are two kinds of data sources, namely primary and secondary
sources (Ary, 2006: 482). The primary source in this research is the students’ speaking
product. Then, the secondary source is from books, articles, English dictionary, encyclopedia,
and journals that are closely related to the research.
The data was achieved through several techniques, they are: observation, interview, and
documentation. After getting all the data, Creswell (2003: 184) states that in many qualitative
studies, inquiries collect multiple forms of data and send a considerable time in the natural
setting gathering information. The data also were collected by applying Focus Group
Discussion (FGD). Here, it not use natural setting but conditional setting.
3.3.
Judgement of appropriacy
In this study use purposive sample to identify the purposefully selected participants for the
purpose study that will help to understand the problem and the research questions. It has
chosen the students of English Education Study Program that had learned sociolinguistics
subject and have different ethnics in Universities of Metro as the participants.
4. Result of Focus Group Discussion
In this case, the students were analyzed by their speaking. These, about four topics such as
personal experiences, disasters, legends, and fables. The aspects were analyzed such as the
effect from dialect, the grammar errors in students speaking skill, and the contribution of
ethnic language in cultural style and code switching based on the students’ speaking skill.
4.1.
The effect from dialect
Figure I. The effect of students multilingual repertoire in dialect of speaking English.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 225 Based on the above data, it would be describe that:
There are 6 students who speak English fluently by using their Javanese dialect. They tend
to speak English in Javanese style such as when they pronounce speak with sepik, and school
with sekul. Then, 3 students who speak English fluently by using their Sundanese dialect.
They speak Good Morning in a Sundanese style, but they tend to use an Indonesian dialect.
Next, 1 student who speaks English fluently by using Balinese dialect. That student
pronounce the word like a native and fast, but still use Balinese style like intonation and
pronunciation. It is such long long time ago with lung lung time ago and the clear intonation.
The other student is 1 student who speaks English use Melayu style. The finding that the
students tend to use Melayu pronunciation like “e” when speaking English such as since I in
Lampung with sence I in Lampung. Then, 2 students who speak English by using Padangnese
dialect and style. They tend to speak English with Indonesian style and dialect, but sometimes
they still use their own dialect like “o”, example: disaster about with disoster ebout. Last, 2
students who speak English by using Lampungnese dialect and style. Then, found that they
tend to Indonesia like Sundanese and Padangnese. Sometimes they use loudly intonation like
in Lampungnese.
4.2.
The grammar errors in students speaking skill
Some students in three universities of Metro made a number of mistakes in grammar. The
disadvantages will be discussed below:
a)
1)
2)
Word order
I can speak Javanese language.
I can speak Indonesian language.
226 3)
4)
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 I could life in this world until this day.
It is good my planning.
Most of the above sentences are use unsuitable word in accomplishing the sentences. In
the first sentence is incorrect because Javanese is language of Java. It would be better to speak
Javanese without language. Then, the last sentence shown inappropriate word. The word
“day” is not followed by “this” but “to”. The correct word is today.
b)
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
Modal Auxiliary
I thought about what have I done.
I could life in this world until this day.
I would got many experiences.
I can met the people from Sabang until Merauke.
We can took conclusion.
The description of all the above sentences are modal auxiliary must be putted after the
subject and always followed by verb base. Then, modal auxiliary must be followed verb.
Thus, modal auxiliary was not followed by noun, adverb, and adjectives.
c)
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
Noun
Some kind of food.
I got a new friends.
I can speak very little about Javanese.
… And then little little about Javanese.
I got many friend from other Island.
In Lampung, so many thing is so cheap.
Based on the above sentences can be seen that was unsuitable form, because some always
followed by plural form. Then, the other sentence used singular form but followed by plural
form. By this, the correct sentences are some kinds of foods and I got a new friend.
In addition, little, many and some included in countable and uncountable classifying. Little
must be spoken without repetition like the above sentences noticed by PBI students.
d)
1)
Phrasal verb
The people very different with others.
Phrasal verb has the own couple of the current words. In this sentence is incorrect because
the couple of different is from, to, and then.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 227 e)
1)
2)
Degree of comparison
I can speak Javanese more fluently.
The beautifullist in Lampung is Krui beach.
Those sentences are inappropriate with the adjectives fluent and beautiful. The word fluent
was not followed by more but change the function to be an adverb that is fluently. The next
sentence is also unsuitable with the degree of comparison rules, because beautiful is one
syllable. Therefore, before beautiful must put more.
f)
1)
Preposition
I was disappeared in under water.
Preposition is a word or a group of word such as in, from, under, to, and etc. The above
sentence has two preposition those are in and under. The correct sentence is I was
disappeared under water.
g)
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
Verb
The title Roro Jonggrang.
I register in Muhammadiyah University with my friend.
I am happy when I accepted in this University.
I very happy in Lampung.
I enjoying the heaven of Lampung.
I shopping in some markets.
The discussion of verb form are very complicated, because it use all of the tenses in
establishing the sentence. Those sentences are inappropriate in the using of tenses form. The
students want to tell about the past even but they always use present tenses.
h)
1)
2)
Conjunction
And not only from Java, but it spared to another Island.
Beside it, I shopping in …
In the first sentence shown that not only is not has appropriate couple. In this case, the
couple of not only is but also. The second sentence known that beside as the conjunction was
followed by s.
From the above discussion, it can be seen that there are some students’ errors in many parts
of structure and grammar as a result of their own multilingual repertoire. By this, we know
that some students in three universities use their own repertoire to speak English.
228 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 4.3.
The contribution of ethnic language in cultural style and code switching based on the
students’ speaking skill
In line with the data analysis, the researcher found several styles in students speaking
performance. It can be assumed in percentage that 50% students in three universities use
Indonesian style especially in Islamic culture. Some students in those universities are
common to start their speaking with Basmallah and Salam then for the last they are common
to say ok, I think that’s all from me, the last I say, and ok, I think enough from me, then
Salam.
On the other hand, most students are common to switch more than two languages in their
speaking performance. For example are: you must manage your money well, yeah like saya,
my friends from senior high school Kartikatama satu Metro, and the mother angry with him
and mengutuk or meng coach become a stone.
The result of the above description are multilingual repertoire give much effect in the
students speaking performance. Those effect are through the students’ style and code
switching.
5. Result of Observation and Interview
Regarding with the result of observation and interview, the writer found two aspects such
as the repetition in students speaking English and the advantages of the students’ multilingual
repertoire. The following explanation are bellow:
5.1.
The repetition in students speaking English
All of the students in three universities are always doing repetition like “of course”, “and
then”, “what is it”, “and”, “because”, “after that”, “well”, “ok”, and “in here”. They use the
same words to improve their idea such as “a”, “ok”, “well”, and “yeah”. In this case show that
some of the students in three universities need repetition in their speaking to make the listener
understand about the point of the topics.
5.2.
The advantages of the students’ multilingual repertoire
Regarding to the disadvantages of Multilingual Repertoire, it has some advantages in
students’ speaking skill. There were the advantages: 1) the students could know the other
languages and cultures, and 2) the students were easily to communicate with others.
Related to the discussion, the PBI students of three universities are enjoy the teaching
learning process whether the teacher switch the language. On the other hand, the fluently in
speaking is one of advantages from the students’ Multilingual Repertoire.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 229 6.
Discussion
The conclusion of data analysis describes that most students have their own repertoire. The
students’ repertoire are more than two languages which called by multilingual repertoire. The
result of the data analysis that Javanese is the only ethnic which give a big effect in the
students speaking performance. Those effect are through pronunciation, style, vocabularies,
grammar, and comprehension.
It is revealed that 40% students tend to Javanese, 20% students tend to Sundanese, 13%
tend to Lampungnese, 13% tend to Padangnese, 7% tend to Melayu, and 7% tend to Balinese.
By conducting this research, we could know to what extent the effect of the students’
multilingual repertoire in speaking English at three universities. Then, we can know how
multilingual repertoire change the students’ style in speaking English. Last, the audio-visual
method can be utilized as teaching aid in teaching speaking.
Based on the result of this research, the researcher realize that this research is affirmative
to the previous research from India named Shahzaman Haque. Haque conducted his research
in three cities in India. Nevertheless, this research has a uniqueness in collecting the data by
using FGD for speaking skill. And conduct the research in three universities in Metro.
7. Conclusion
In many parts of the world, some people could speak more than two languages. This
phenomena is called by multilingual repertoire. Multilingual repertoire in the students of PBI
in STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro, Muhammadiyah University, and IAIM NU Metro give great
effects to the students speaking. Therefore, the writer conduct this research by analyzing the
effect of the students’ multilingual repertoire on speaking performance.
In this research, found that there were 40% students have ability to speak English fluently,
but they use Javanese dialect and style. Then, 20% students tend to Sundanese, but the dialect
is not give big effect in speaking. Next, 13% students tend to Lampungnese which the style is
dominant. The other is 13% students tend to Padangnese, which the style is also dominant.
Then, 7% students tend to Melayu, and last is 7% student tend to Balinese. However, some
students in those universities need a repetition in speaking performance to make it clear.
Finally, the effect of the students’ multilingual repertoire in speaking is not only from
dialect, but also from the students’ ethnic style. The effect of dialect comes from others
languages in pronunciation, grammar and vocabularies. Then, the effect of style comes from
others languages in comprehension and cultural style.

Abstract
This present study aims at knowing the correlation between linguistic intelligence and sudents’
narrative performance at STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro. This research used quantitative approach and
correlation design. The population of this research was all of the students at the third semester of
English Education Study Program of STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro, which was divided into seven
classes. The researcher just took one class randomly as sample (cluster random sampling). There are
two variables investigated in this research, the independent variable is linguistic intelligence
and the dependent variable is students’ narrative performance. The data of this study were obtained by
distributing questionnaire set and the free writing test. Then, they were analyzed by using Pearson
Product Moment formula. In this study, the researcher calculated the score between two variables
and found that the score of computed r calculation was 0,934. The score of r table with 30 as the
degree of freedom (df) = N-2 was 0,374 at 0,05 level of significance. The findings of this research
revealed that the score of r calculation was higher than the score of r table, so the alternative
hypothesis was accepted. It could be concluded that there was positive correlation between
linguistic intelligence and students narrative performance at the third semester of English Education
Study Program at STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro.
Keywords: Correlation; Linguistic Intelligence; Multiple Intelligence; Narrative Performance
1. Introduction
This study examines human’s intelligences. Intelligence is the ability to learn, understand
and think in a logical way about things; the ability to do this well. each student is differently
in their intelligence, therefore their capability to write are not same because their intelligence
is not same one each other. Gardner identified eight forms of intelligence: linguistic, logicalmathematical, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal and
natural (Munif Chatib and Alamsyah Said, 2012: 79). Linguistics intelligence is related to the
students’ writing. Because written language is one characteristics of linguistics intelligence. In
the other hand, the writer asserts that despite of students has multiple intelligence but not
every them do have the same of linguistic intelligence. Writing is a psychological activity of
the language user to put information in the written text (Sanggam Siahan, 2008: 215).
Recently, there has been wide interesting the discussion of linguistics intelligence. Every
student has differently of linguistics intelligence. Due to linguistics intelligence is the capacity
to use words effectively whether orally or in writing. Sometime students who master in
232 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 233 speech not always they can write well, also students who master in writing not always they
master in speech.
This study aims to know the third semester of English Education Study Program at State
Islamic College Metro has studied about the narrative, but their ability in writing narrative is
not good enough. These problems are the students unable to elaborate the ideas into paragraph
well, the teacher tried to teach grammar optimally, however the students are unable to master
it well, and the teacher tried optimally in giving vocabulary; however, the students are lack to
enrich and memorize it. Concerning the problems are faced by the students in writing
narrative, understanding about students’ linguistics intelligence is an importance thing. The
teacher should be able to know it to help students in developing of thinking critically in their
writing. The present study focused on the correlation between linguistics intelligence and
students’ narrative performance at third semester of English Education Study Program of
State Islamic College Metro. The writer assumes that linguistics intelligence has correlation to
the students’ narrative performance.
2. Background
2.1. Multiple Intelligence
Humans are the most superior beings who created by God from another beings in the
world. They can think with their mind and can master more than one language, it is caused of
their intelligence. In human activity language plays as important role in human’s activities. It
can be used to communicate, interact, and negotiate with others. God gives humans the
superiority namely intelligence, include IQ, EQ, and SQ. Every human is unique,
because it has a different intelligence with different levels of development. Another
intelligence that people can develop is multiple intelligences. The multiple intelligence
theory that was proposed by Howard Gardner published in his book “Frame of Mind” in
1983. This theory, developed by his team at Harvard University, which suggest that “there are
several and relatively independent intelligences which can be combined in a various ways by
individuals. There are eight types of multiple intelligences and one of the type is linguistic
intelligence. The multiple intelligence as defined by Hoerr (2000) are in the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
Linguistics: sensitivity to the meaning and order of words.
Logical-mathematical: the ability to handle chains of reasoning and recognize patterns
and order.
Spatial: the ability to perceive the world accurately and to recreate or transform aspects of
that world.
Bodily–kinesthetic: the ability to use the body skillfully and handle objects adroitly.
Musical: sensitivity to pitch, melody, rhythm, and tone.
Interpersonal: The ability to understand people and relationships.
Intrapersonal: access to one’s emotional life as a means to understand oneself and others.
Naturalist: The ability to recognize and classify the numerous species, the flora and
fauna, of an environment.
Moreover, Thomas Armstrong pointed the characteristic each intelligence as follows:
234 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 1. Linguistic—Word Smart
2. Logical-mathematical—Number Smart or Logic Smart: “How many of you can do math?”
“How many people here have done a science experiment?”
3. Spatial—Picture Smart: “How many of you draw?” “How many of you can see pictures in
your heads when you close your eyes?” “How many of you enjoy watching television and
films or playing video games?”
4. Bodily-kinesthetic—Body Smart, Sports Smart, or Hand Smart (each term represents a
different aspect of this intelligence): “How many of you like sports?” “How many of you
enjoy making things with your hands, like models or Lego structures?”
5. Musical—Music Smart: “How many of you enjoy listening to music?” “How many of you
have ever played a musical instrument or sung a song?”
6. Interpersonal—People Smart: “How many of you have at least one friend?” “How many of
you enjoy working in groups at least part of the time here in school?”
7. Intrapersonal—Self Smart: “How many of you have a secret or special place you go to
when you want to get away from everybody and everything?” “How many of you like to
spend at least part of the time working on your own here in class?”
8. Naturalist—Nature Smart: “How many of you enjoy being out in nature?” “How many of
you have ever had a butterfly collection, an insect collection, a collection of leaves from
trees in your neighborhood, a collection of shells, or some other kind of collection of
natural things?” “How many of you have pets or enjoy spending time with animals?”
MI helped us recognize that all of us have different intelligence profiles; not only do we
learn differently, we teach differently too.” (Thomas, 2000: 5). It means that MI assisted
people know that every people have contrasting smartness profile; not only conduct the
people study unequally, but in teaching so. A Key Learning Community middle school
student says, “MI makes you learn different things about yourself. It brings out hidden
talents.” (Linda Campbell and Bruce Campbell, 1999: 11).
2.2. Linguistic intelligence and students’ writing
Linguistic intelligence is the ability of the individual which involves sensitivity to
spoken and written language, the ability to learn languages, and the capacity to use
language to accomplish certain goals (Gardner, 2005: 5). This intelligence includes the
ability to effectively use language to express oneself rhetorically or poetically; and
language as a means to remember information. Linguistic intelligence is the capacity to
use language, your native language, and perhaps other languages, to express what’s on
your mind and to understand other people. Definition of the researchers mean by linguistic
intelligence is the ability of the student when the student as the ability to use words
effectively and the ability of the student in learning a foreign language in this case is
English language. Thus, in English language learning students are able to master the
skills that must be mastered in the English language that is writing skills. According to
McCrimmon (1957: 3) “Writing is a process that can be learned and used; it is not, like
height, a product of the genes about which little or nothing can be done.” It can be noted that
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 235 writing is process everyone can study about it and used it. Furthermore, Brown (2001: 337).
points out that “writing is a way to end up thinking something you couldn’t have started out
thinking. Writing is, in fact, a transaction with words whereby you free yourself from what
you presently think, feel, and perceive.” It can be assumed that writing is to pour the content
from what the person feeling and thinking on that time by using words.
Siahan (2008: 2) pointed that “the written productive language skiil is called writing. It is
the skill of a writer to communicate to a reader or group of readers.” It can be repeated that
writing is fertile language competence, this competence of writer to talk with the reader.
Moreover, he states “Writing is a psychological activity of the language user to put
information in the written text.” It can be inferred that writing is the activities of the writer to
put the news in the written text.
A tendency towards Linguistic Intelligence is the motivation of the written and
spoken word. In addition, people with high linguistic intelligence display a facility with
words and languages. They are typically good at reading, writing, telling stories and
memorizing words along with dates. They tend to learn best by reading, taking notes,
listening to lectures, discussion, and debate. People with linguistic intelligence love and
had an ear for words. They enjoy reading, writing and learning languages. They have an
ability to teach and explain things to others.
Therefore, the researcher wants to conduct a research to find out whether there is
significant correlation or not between linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative
performance. And statement of the problem of this study is: “Is there any correlations
positively and significance between students’ linguistics intelligence and their narrative
performance at the third semester of English Education Study Program?” Based on the
research problem, the purpose of this study is to find out the correlation between
linguistic intelligence and the students’ narrative performance at the third semester of English
Education Study Program at STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro. Individuals with linguistic
intelligence has the following characteristic:
1. Writes better than average of age
2. Spins tall tales or tells jokes and stories
3. Has a good memory for names, places, dates, or trivia
4. Enjoys word games
5. Enjoys reading books
6. Spells word accurately (or if preschool, does developmental spelling that is advanced
for age)
7. Appreciates rhymes and tongue twisters
8. Enjoys listening to the spoken word (stories, commentary on the radio, talking books)
9. Has a good vocabulary for age
10. Communicate with others in a highly verbal way
11. Writing effectively, understanding and applying the rule of language, he mechanical
aspect of writing and use vocabulary effectively
Detterman (2008) stated that “Linguistic intelligence involves aptitude with speech and
language.” It means that linguistic intelligence entails natural ability or skill at doing
something with talk and wording such as speaking, pronouncing, reading, writing etc.
236 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Moreover Gardner (1983) stated that “Linguistic competence is, in fact, the intelligence—the
intellectual competence—that seems most widely and most democratically shared across the
human species.” It can be assumed that linguistic competence is the conceptual ability in the
human race. He also stated that “. . . oral and written forms of language doubtless draw on
some of the same capacities, specific additional skills are needed to express oneself
appropriately in writing. . .” It can be noted that kind of spoken or written of language almost
certainly draw on some of the same capabilities, particular additional talents are reqired to
state oneself properly in writing.
Armstrong stated that “linguistics is the capacity to use words effectively, whether orally
(e.g. as a storyteller, orator, or politician) or in writing (e.g. as a poet, playwright, editor and
journalist), (2003: 12). This intelligence includes the ability to manipulate the syntax or
structure of language, the phonology or sounds of language, the semantics or meaning of
language and the pragmatic dimensions or practical uses of language”. It means that
linguistics is the ability in using words it visible from orally or writing, this intelligence
involve the capability to steer about the syntax, the phonology, the semantics and pragmatic in
language.
Furthermore, he pointed out that “linguistics-reading test, language test, the verbal
sections of intelligence and achievement test.” It means that linguistic test can be tested
through reading, writing, speaking and accomplishment test. Moreover, he notes that, “each of
the eight intelligences in his theory meets the criterion of being able to be symbolized. Each
intelligence in fact, has its own unique symbol or notational system. “For linguistic
intelligence, there are a number of spoken and written languages such as English, French and
Spanish.” It illustrates that own unique symbol of linguistics its can know from the capability
in verbal section and writing, such as English, French and Spanish.
2.3. The characteristic of students’ intelligence
Provides brief descriptions of the capacities of children who display proclivities in
specific intelligences. Keep in mind, however, that most students have strengths in several
areas, so you should avoid pigeonholing a child in only one intelligence. You will probably
find each student pictured in two or more of these intelligence descriptions.

2.4. Narrative Text
Narrative is an account or description of events in the past, which entails following a time
sequence or chronological order (i.e. earliest first). (Jourdan, 2003: 27). It means that
narrative is telling stories in the past which it had a need of the order that events and actions
happen in. Narrative aims to entertain, to gain and maintain the attention of the reader or
238 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 listener a story. Narrative also aims to educate, inform, convey a reflection on the experience
of the author, and are no less important is to develop the imagination of the reader or listener.
Imaginary narrative text generally, but there are also factual narrative text, which tells the true
incidence.
The generic structure of narrative is firstly, orientation: It is about the opening paragraph
where the characters of the story are introduced (Who, what, when and where). Secondly,
complication or problem: Where the problems in the story developed. The last, resolution:
There needs to be a resolution of the complication. The complication may be resolved for
better or worse/happily or unhappily. Sometimes there are a number of complications that
have to be resolved. These add and sustain interest and suspense for the reader.
From the point of view of language features, narrative is characterized as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Participants are often specific and individualized
Many action verbs (material processes), and there is also the use of
verbal and mental processes.
Past tense usually use.
Many use linking Words related to time.
Often incorporate dialogue and tense will probably change.
Descriptive language used for creating images in the minds of readers.
Written in the first person (I), or third (he, she, they).
Example of Narrative
One day a young man and woman had meals in one of the best restaurants in the city.
After they had intered the restaurants, a nice young waitress help them find the table. After
they got on their table, they began to look into the menu. The woman wanted to order the
snails with garlic, she let the man look into the menu and let him order what they liked to
enjoy. Although his girlfriend thought it was delicious, he did not order snails. He thought it
was strange, and instead, he ordered fried brains. After few minutes of waiting, the waitress
brought them snails and fried brains.
3. Method
3.1. Learner Subject
These comprise 30 students undertaking the third semester of English education study
program of Jurai Siwo Metro in the academic year 2014/2015. Seventeen were female and
thirteen were male. All were in the 18-20 age group.There are around 304 students as the
population which was divided into seven classes namely A, B, C, D, E, F and G.
Since it was not possible to deal with the whole of the population, so the researcher just
took one class as sample consists of 30 students that representative the whole of
population. Referring to the explanation above, in conducting this research the
researcher applies cluster random sampling, and the researcher tested the hypothesis at
0.05 level of significant.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 239 3.2. Method of Data Collection
In this research, the researcher used two kinds of research insturments to collect
the data. They are questionnaire set and test. Firstly, The level of linguistic intelligence
was measured by asking the students about their agreement and disagreement about
“the characteristic of linguistic intelligence”. The students’ agreement and disagreement
about the characteristic of linguistic intelligence was appeared in the questions
presenting in the questionnaire. The questionnaire was given to the students to get the
data needed. There were 20 questionnaire items, each item have five alternative
responses. To measure the reliability of the questionnaire, the researcher used split half
method and computed with Spearman Brown formula. This measurement of the
questionnaire used SPSS version 16. The result of this computation of the
questionnaire was 0,9843. This indicates that the reliability of questionnaire was High.
Secondly, free writing test intended to measure the student’s narrative performance to
understand their ability in in writing narrative such as from their organization and
development, grammatically, mechanical aspect of writing and use vocabulary effectively.
The test used to collect the data to measure the students’ ability in reading
comprehension. The test was the researcher given three topics to the students and ordered
them to choose one and they composed it by using their own ideas. The topics were about
personal experience, fables and legends.
From illustration above, in this research, firstly the researcher gave questionnaire
set and test to the students. Secondly, the researcher scored the questionnaire set and
test. And finally, researcher computed the both of data to find out whether there was
significant correlation or not. The resercher used statistical analyze by using Pearson
Product Moment formula to compute the correlation between linguistic intelligence and
the students’ narrative performance at STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro in the academic year of
2013/1014.
3.3. Data analysis
To investigate whether there is correlation between linguistics intelligence and the
students’ narrative performance at the third semester of English Department of State Islamic
College Metro, the writer analysis the data by using product moment.

Results
In this research, the researcher calculated the total score on their linguistic intelligence
was 2119 with the percentage high was 17%, average was 66% and low was 16%. Whereas,
the researcher calculated the total score of students’ narrative performance test was
2139 with the percentage high was 13%, average was 57% and low was 30%. The
Computation of the Correlation between Linguistic Intelligence and students’ narrative
performance ∑N=30, ∑X=2119,
∑Y=2139, ∑X2=150693, ∑Y2=153419, and ∑XY=151984. The data was analyzed by
Pearson Product Moment formula as follow:
rxy 
n. XY  ( X )(Y )
{n. X 2  ( X )2}.{n.Y 2  (Y )2}
From the statistical computation, it can be concluded that the Pearson r calculation
was 0.934. While the score of r table with 30 as the degree of freedom (df) = N-2, whereas
30-2 = 28, with level of significance .05 was .374. It means that the score of calculated r
calculation was higher than the score of r table. Since the computed r calculation was higher than
r table (critical r), therefore the null hypothesis which state that there is no correlation
between linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative performance was rejected. It means
the correlation of the two variables is not significant. The alternative hypothesis which
states that there is correlation between linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative
performance was accepted. It means the correlation of the two variables is significant.
4.1. Linguistic intelligence
Linguistic Intelligence is as the independent variable (X) of the research in getting the
data of student’s linguistic intelligence, the writer used questionnaire set to students. The
scope of the questionnaire set is around the characteristic of linguistic intelligence. The
invariant frequency distribution of linguistic intelligence in the questionnaire as follow:

Thus, it could be concluded that students in low categories in the table of interval
classification above are students who have score from 57-66 are 17%, they were about five
students, who have score from 67-75 are 66%, they were about twenty students, their
classification into average categories, and who have score from 76-85 are 17%, they were
about five students, their classification into high categories.
4.2. Narrative Writing Performance
Narrative writing performance is as dependent variable of the research. In order to get the
data of student’s narrative writing performance the writer used writing test to students. In this
case the writer determined free writing of narrative. Then, students are asked to choose one of
topics and then make free writing of narrative test. The invariant frequency distribution of
narrative writing performance test as follow:

who have score from 69-76 are 57%, they are seventeen students, their classification into
average categories, and who have score from 77-85 are 13%, they are four students, their
classification into high categories.
4.3.
Hypothesis testing
After getting the data of student’s linguistic intelligence (X) and narrative performance
(Y), then the data are analyzed using the statistical formula. The results of analyzing of the
data are as follows:
1. The frequency distribution of students’ linguistic intelligence (X) and narrative
performance (Y) of the third semester of English Education Study Program of STAIN Jurai
Siwo Metro. The writer found the data analysis of students’ linguistic intelligence (X) and
narrative performance (Y). the result of the data is represented in the table below:

This symbol “∑” is the total results in the table. To find and to prove whether there is
correlation between students’ linguistic intelligence and their narrative performance, the
writer used the product moment formula:

From the statistical computation above, it could be inferred that the computation of the
correlation between Linguistic Intelligence and students’ narrative performance above is
∑N=30, ∑X=2119, ∑Y=2139, ∑X2=150693, ∑Y2=153419, and ∑XY=151984. From the
statistical computation, it can be concluded that the Pearson r calculation was 0.934. While
the score of r table with 30 as the degree of freedom (df) = N-2, whereas 30-2 = 28, with level
of significance .05 was .374. It means that the score of calculated r calculation was higher
than the score of r table. Since the computed r calculation was higher than r table (critical r),
therefore the null hypothesis which state that there is no correlation between linguistic
intelligence and students’ narrative performance was rejected. It means the correlation of
the two variables is not significant. The alternative hypothesis which states that there
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 245 is correlation between linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative performance was
accepted. It means the correlation of the two variables is significant.
5. Discussion
Linguistic intelligence as part of the multiple intelligences is a form of intelligence
that is essential in daily life. In this research, the researcher found that this research gives a
real description that the classification of the students’ linguistic intelligence and their
students’ narrative performance was strong correlation. It means that students’ linguistic
intelligence influenced their reading their narrative performance. As stated in the previous
chapter that one of the characteristic of linguistic intelligence likes to write and able to write
well, so it was true that students’ linguistic intelligence have the positive effect to their
narrative writing performance. Armstrong (2009: 6) asserts that linguistics is the capacity to
use words effectively, whether orally (e.g. as a storyteller, orator, or politician) or in writing
(e.g. as a poet, playwright, editor and journalist). According to Gardner (1993: 82)
“memorizing, reading, writing, speaking, listening are activity that is controlled by a
person who has linguistic intelligence”. Based on Gardner “children with linguistic
intelligence excel at reading, writing, telling stories, and doing crossword or other
word puzzles”.
Armstrong (2009: 40) stated that a person who has linguistic intelligence with the
high ability, they think through the words. They also love reading, writing, telling
stories, playing word games. In addition, they also need books, writing materials,
diary, debates, and other things so to support their learning activities. In addition, writing
is one of skills which correlated with linguistic intelligence. Students’ linguistic
intelligence influenced their attitude in writing learning process. This positive attitude
will affect the students to increase their learning especially in writing.
Therefore, if the students have high linguistic intelligence, they are typically good
at writing, and they tend to learn best by writing. Considering the importance of
writing was a first skill that needs to be mastered by each student, so they must also pay
attention to the things that influenced the writing habit such as time of writing, the way
of writing, and other things related to the good writing habit. Furthermore, if they
already have a good writing habit, they also have the linguistic intelligence which it
would be useful to their in understanding the vocabulary and oral or written language. It
can be concluded that there is correlation between linguistic intelligence and students’
narrative performance.
Linguistic intelligence influenced students’ narrative performance, and students’ narrative
performance was depend on linguistic intelligence. In other words, It is impossible if the
linguistic intelligence can increased without writing activity. Armstrong (2009: 6) asserts
that linguistics is the capacity to use words effectively, whether orally (e.g. as a storyteller,
orator, or politician) or in writing (e.g. as a poet, playwright, editor and journalist). In
addition, Siahan (2008: 215) states that “Writing is a psychological activity of the language
user to put information in the written text.” From the statements above, it can be concluded
246 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 that linguistics intelligence is related to the students writing. Because written language is one
characteristics of linguistics intelligence.
After Ha and Ho above were formulated, the writer consulted “r
follows:
calculation”
to “r
table”
as
1) If “r calculation” is higher than “r table”, Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and
Null Hypothesis (Ho) is rejected.
2) If “r table” is higher than “r calculation”, Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) is rejected and
Null Hypothesis (Ho) is accepted.
To know the critical value of r product moment (r table), the writer firstly counted df. Df is
degree of freedom. The formulation of df = N – 2. N is the number of research population.
Df = N - 2
= 30 – 2
= 28
After considering the product moment table by using df 28, it can be known that:
1) The critical value of r product moment (r table) for the 5% level is 0.374.
2) The critical value of r product moment (r table) for the 1% level is 0.478.
From all data analysis above, it can be known that:
1) The score 0,934 can be seen on the Product Moment table N= 28 using 5%
confidence limits is gained the score 0.374and 1%= 0.478, where
rcal=0,934>rtable=0,374. By all means, there is correlation between students’ linguistic
intelligence and narrative performance.
2) The score 0,934 is more than 0,000. It means that there is positive correlation
between students’ intelligence and their narrative performance at the third semester
of English Education Study Program of STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro.. Besides, we got
rcal= 0,934 > r table= 0,374, so we considered that there is significant correlation
between them.
3) The score 0,934 is between 0,800 – 1.00. It means that the correlation between
students’ intelligence and their narrative performance at the third semester of English
Education Study Program of STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro is high.
Based on the result data confirmed that r calculation is higher than r table. Therefore, it can be
inferred that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. It means that there is positive and significant
correlation between students’ intelligence and their narrative performance at the third
semester of English Education Study Program of STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro.
6. Conclusion
In accordance with the problem, and the purpose of the research, the researcher drew
some conclusions. Firstly, from the result of computing the students’ score on their
linguistic intelligence, it can be concluded that the students’ linguistic intelligence was
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 247 good. Secondly, based on the result of computing of the students’ score of students’
narrative performance test, it can be concluded that the third semester of English
Education Study Program at STAIN Jurai Siwo Metro has good writing ability. Thirdly,
according to the main purpose of this research, the researcher concluded that there is
positive correlation between linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative performance .
This was shown by the score of computed r calculation is higher than the score of r
table. It means that the alternative hypothesis which says that there is correlation between
linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative performance is accepted and the correlation
of the two variables is significant. On the contrary, the null hypothesis which says
that there is no correlation between linguistic intelligence and students’ narrative
performance is rejected. It means that the correlation of the two variables is not
significant. The suggestion for the teacher ,based on this study where students’ linguistic
intelligence influenced their narrative performance, so the teacher should stimulate
students' linguistic intelligence by using the appropriate learning method.
Learning methods are very important role in optimizing student intelligence. If the
method used is good and right, students will be stimulated to optimize intelligence
possessed, especially linguistic intelligence. In this case the method has the ability as
a stimulating tool that is able to evoke potential of students' intelligence. For that, it could
be understood that the method is a motivational tool in teaching learning activities. For
the students, the students should increase their linguistic intelligence. One way to
increase linguistic intelligence is by doing creative writing activity. That way writing
ability will increase because gets knowledge from the literature that have been read and
write it in daily life. The future researchers, The researcher suggests that future researchers
must consider the better quality instrument that used in research, in order to make the
result of the research better. Thus can contribute to the students, exactly in writing
ability and the students know more about linguistic intelligence, and make students
aware that linguistic intelligence is very important, because this intelligence is needed
in almost all spheres of life.

ABSTRAK
Makalah ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta
Selamanya dengan perspektif Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional. Kedua novel ini memiliki genre yang
berbeda. Novel LDR bergenre fiksi remaja yang mengangkat tema cinta dalam traveling, sedangkan
novel Cinta Selamanya bergenre fiksi dewasa yang mengangkat tema cinta dari kisah nyata penulis.
Metode penelitian yang dilakukan yaitu metode analisis komparatif. Analisis ini
difokuskan pada aspek transitivitas, yaitu realisasi pengalaman linguistik pemakai bahasa.
Dalam kajian Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional, satu unit pengalaman yang sempurna
direalisasikan dalam klausa yang terdiri atas (1) proses, (2) partisipan, dan (3) sirkumstan.
Dengan metode analisis komparatif akan diketahui persamaan dan perbedaan aspek
transitivitas yang terdapat dalam novel L’eternita di Roma LDR dan Cinta Selamanya.
Teori Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional digunakan sebagai perspektif analisis ini
didasarkan pada pemikiran bahwa pendekatan ini terbukti mampu menjawab berbagai
persoalan kebahasaan, tidak terkecuali analisis terhadap karya sastra. Sistem transitivitas dalam
tata bahasa, terdiri atas enam proses, yaitu proses material, proses relasional, proses mental, proses
verbal, proses behavioral, dan proses eksistensial. Pada novel L’eternita di Roma dan Cinta
Selamanya, proses yang dominan muncul adalah proses material. Namun, pada persentase kemunculan
kedua dan selanjutnya, pada novel L’eternita di Roma berturut-turut adalah proses mental, proses
relasional, proses behavioral, dan proses verbal, sedangkan pada novel Cinta Selamanya pada tingkat
kedua dan selanjutnya berturut-turut adalah proses behavioral, proses mental, proses relasional, dan
proses verbal.
Kata Kunci : Transitivitas, Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional, Analisis Karya Sastra
A. Pendahuluan
Teks merupakan suatu kesatuan bahasa yang memiliki isi dan bentuk, baik lisan maupun
tulisan yang bertujuan untuk menyampaikan pesan tertentu. Teks dapat ditelaah dan dipahami dari
berbagai sudut pandang, seperti yang dikemukakan oleh Halliday (1985: 11) “context of situation”.
Teks berkaitan dengan sesuatu yang secara aktual dilakukan, dimaknai, dan dikatakan oleh
masyarakat dalam situasi nyata. Teks dimaknai secara dinamis. Sebuah teks juga dapat direalisasikan
dengan level yang lebih tinggi, seperti interpretasi, kesastraan, sosiologis, maupun psikoanalitis.
Novel merupakan salah satu model teks yang menawarkan sebuah produk budaya hasil
pemikiran tentang kehidupan. Perwujudan novel menitikberatkan pada pengalaman manusia. Sebagai
sebuah karya fiksi dan seni kreatif, novel tidak saja merupakan suatu media untuk menyampaikan teks
yang berisi pesan, tetapi juga merupakan media untuk menampung ide, teori, dan sistem berpikir
manusia. Sebagai karya kreatif, sastra harus mampu melahirkan suatu kreasi yang indah dan berusaha
menyalurkan kebutuhan keindahan manusia, di samping itu sastra harus mampu menjadi wadah
penyampaian ide-ide yang dipikirkan dan dirasakan oleh sastrawan tentang kehidupan. Melalui sebuah
novel, seorang pengarang berusaha untuk menanamkan pemikiran-pemikiran melalui sebuah jalinan
249 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 250 cerita. Tentunya sangat menarik untuk mengeksplorasi hubungan antara struktur bahasa dan makna
sosial yang dibentuk dalam teks naratif tersebut, salah satunya dikaji dengan teori Linguistik Sistemik
Fungsional (LFS).
Dalam LFS dikenal istilah transitivitas. Secara umum, transitivitas merupakan penjelasan suatu
makna yang dipresentasikan dalam suatu kalimat. Transitivitas memiliki peran dalam menunjukkan
gambaran pikiran manusia mengenai kenyataandan gabungan pengalaman kenyataan sekitar. Dalam
linguistik, transitivitas berhubungan dengan makna proposional dan fungsi elemen-elemen simantik.
Teks sastra yang berupa novel sangat menarik untuk dianalisis menggunakan LFS. Jika dilihat dari
beberapa genre novel, pasti akan berbeda antara novel yang bergenre fiksi remaja dengan novel yang
bergenre fiksi dewasa.
B. Kajian Pustaka
Analisis teks lahir dari kesadaran bahwa persoalan yang terdapat dalam komunikasi tidak hanya
terbatas pada penggunaan kalimat, bagian kalimat, atau fungsi ucapan, tetapi juga mencakup struktur
pesan yang lebih kompleks dan inheren yang disebut teks. Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional (LSF)
merupakan teori utama yang digunakan pada makalah ini. Teori ini dipelopori oleh M.A.K. Halliday.
Di sini disebutkan bahwa sistemic berakar dari kata sistem yang artinya representasi dari teori
terhadap hubungan paradigmatik. Fungsional mengimplikasikan tinggi daripada interpretasi,
kesastraan, sosiologis, psikoanalitis, dan sebagainya yang dimiliki oleh teks itu. Level-level yang lebih
rendah itu memiliki kekuatan untuk memproyeksikan makna pada level yang lebih tinggi. Hal ini oleh
Halliday disebut dengan istilah latar depan (foregrounded). Di samping itu, fitur esensial sebuah teks
adalah adanya interaksi. Oleh karena itu, makalah ini menganalisis dua buah teks fiksi berupa novel
yang berjudul L'eternita Di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya dengan perspektif LSF karena novel
juga merupakan sebuah teks yang menyajikan representasi kehidupan nyata.
Halliday (1985:159) berpendapat bahwa fungsi ideasional terdiri atas fungsi logikal. Hal ini
direalisasikan melalui sistem kompleksitas klausa dan fungsi eksperensial yang direalisasikan oleh
sistem transitivitas, fungsi interpersonal direalisasikan oleh sistem moda, dan fungsi tekstual
direalisasikan oleh sistem tema. Makalah ini menitikberatkan pada analisis fungsi ideasional yang
direalisasikan melalui sistem transitivitas, yang menyebabkan manusia menggambarkan mental dan
fakta untuk mengetahui kejadian eksternal dan internal yang dijadikan pengalaman untuk menciptakan
bentuk-bentuk proses.
Pengalaman ini merupakan proses yang sedang terjadi menjadi komoditas yang ditransaksikan
oleh pemakai bahasa. Realisasi pengalaman linguistik pemakai bahasa itu disebut transitivitas.
Pengalaman yang sempurna direalisasikan oleh tiga unsur penting, yaitu proses, partisipan, dan
sirkumstan.
1. Proses
Proses dapat dikatakan sebagai kegiatan ataupun aktivitas yang terjadi dalam kata kerja. Proses
dijadikan sebagai inti dari suatu pengalaman. Hal ini disebabkan proses sebagai penentu keberadaan
partisipan, baik jumlahnya maupun kategorinya (Halliday, 1994:168). Sirkumstan pun secara tidak
langsung juga mendapat pengaruh dari proses melalui probabilitas proses. Misalnya, proses mental
dan material yang keduanya sering muncul dengan sirkumstan berupa lokasi dan cara. Konsep-konsep
sistem transitivitas (proses, partisipan, dan sirkumstan) merupakan kategori-kategori semantik yang
menjelaskan secara umum seperti apa dan bagaimana fenomena dunia nyata direpresentasikan sebagai
struktur linguistik (Halliday, 1985: 109).
Halliday (1994: 107) mengategorikan proses menjadi enam jenis, yaitu tiga pengalaman utama
(proses primer), yaitu terdiri atas proses material, proses mental, dan proses relasional. Selanjutnya,
tiga pengalaman pelengkap, yakni terdiri atas proses perilaku (behavioral), proses verbal, dan proses
wujud (eksistensial). (a)Proses Material, proses material dapat didefinisikan sebagai proses atau
kegiatan yang menyangkut fisik, yakni dapat diamati dengan menggunakan indra. (b) Proses Mental,
proses mental didefinisikan sebagai suatu proses atau kegiatan yang menyangkut kognisi, emosi, dan
persepsi yang terjadi dalam diri manusia sendiri. Secara semantik, proses mental menyangkut pelaku
manusia saja ataupun makhluk lain yang dianggap berperilaku seperti manusia. (c) Proses Relasional,
proses ini dapat didefinisikan sebagai suatu proses penandaan atau penyifatan, yaitu sesuatu yang
dikatakan memiliki sifat atau penanda. Kata kerja yang dapat dikategorikan ke dalam proses ini,
misalnya adalah, ada, menjadi, merupakan, memiliki, dan sebagainya. (d) Proses Tingkah Laku
(Behavioral), proses ini didefinisikan sebagai aktivitas atau kegiatan fisiologis yang menyatakan
tingkah laku fisik manusia. Dalam hal ini yang dapat dikategorikan pada proses ini, misalnya kata
kerja bernapas, menguap, mengeluh, tertawa, dan sebagainya. (e) Proses Verbal, proses verbal adalah
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 251 proses yang menunjukkan aktivitas atau kegiatan yang menyangkut informasi, misalnya pada kata
kerja memerintah, meminta, menjelaskan, dan sebagainya. (f) Proses Wujud (Eksistensial), proses
wujud (eksistensial) adalah suatu proses yang mengekspresikan keberadaan suatu benda tempat benda
itu memang nyata atau benar-benar ada.
2. Partisipan
Partisipan merupakan sesuatu yang dapat diikat oleh proses. Proses dapat dikatikan sebagai inti
atau pusat yang menarik unsur lain, termasuk partisipan. Karena proses merupakan inti, maka proses
sangat menentukan jumlah partisipan yang dapat diikat dalam suatu proses.
3. Sirkumstan
Sirkumstan dapat didefinisikan sebagai lingkungan, sifat, atau lokasi tempat berlangsungnya
suatu proses. Sirkumstan berada di luar jangkauan proses. Oleh karena itu, sirkumstan berlaku dalam
semua jenis proses. Sirkumstan dapat disetarakan dengan keterangan yang lazim digunakan dalam tata
bahasa tradisional. Sirkumstan terdiri atas rentang, yang dapat berupa jarak atau waktu, lokasi yang
mencakup tempat dan waktu, cara, sebab, lingkungan, penyerta, peran, masalah, serta sudut pandang.
C. Metode Penelitian
Analisis ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif, yaitu suatu penelitian
yang umum digunakan ilmu-ilmu sosial, dan sering berupa penyelidikan perubahan masyarakat yang
bersifat longitudinal (Surakhmad, 1990: 140). Pada penelitian ini mula-mula data yang ditemukan
diklasifikasikan, kemudian data tersebut dianalisis. Metode ini juga sering disebut dengan metode
analitik. Secara garis besar, penelitian deskriptif ini memusatkan perhatian pada sifat-sifat data secara
alami atau secara apa adanya, yang secara empiris hidup dalam penutur-penutur bahasa sehingga hasil
yang diperoleh merupakan pemerian bahasa yang aktual (Sudaryanto, 1987).
1. Teknik Pengumpulan Data
Adapun teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah metode simak, yaitu dengan teknik
dasar simak bebas libat cakap, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan teknik lanjutan simak catat (Sudaryanto,
1988). Teknik ini digunakan karena sumber data yang digunakan adalah sumber data tertulis dan lisan.
Adapun proses pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan langkah-langkah berikut ini.
a. Novel L’eternita di Roma LDR dan Cinta Selamanya dibaca secara keseluruhan
b. Bagian dari novel dipilah dan dicatat, kemudian dipilah dalam kategori proses, partisipan, dan
sirkumstan.
2. Teknik Analisis Data
Analisis data didefinisikan sebagai proses mengorganisasikan dan mengurutkan data ke dalam
pola dan kategori sehingga dapat ditemukan tema, kemudian dirumuskan hipotesis kerja seperti yang
disarankan oleh data (Moleong, 2007:280). Berdasarkan definisi tersebut, maka data penelitian ini
dianalisis, diurut, dikategorikan, dan diolah. Dalam hal ini, data yang digunakan adalah novel
L’eternita di Roma LDR dan Cinta Selamanya. Berikut ini adalah prosedur analisisnya.
a. Data yang sudah dipilah kemudian dianalisis transitivitas yang mendominasi.
b. Data juga dipilah untuk memperoleh tipe sirkumstan yang muncul.
c. Menginterpretasikan hasil analisis.
3. Teknik Penyajian Hasil Analisis Data
Data yang sudah ditemukan, kemudian disajikan secara deskriptif berdasarkan teori yang
digunakan, yaitu teori Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional. Selanjutnya, data dibuatkan kemunculan
proses, partisipan, dan sirkumstan dengan statistik sederhana. Setelah itu, dicari hubungan antara
transitivitas (proses, partisipan, dan sirkumstan) dengan konteks situasi. Pada tahapan akhir
dipresentasikan bagaimana hubungan antara transitivitas dan kekuatan retorika. Kemudian, ditutup
dengan simpulan yang ditemukan dan dilengkapi dengan saran.
D. Hasil dan Pembahasan
Fungsi ideasional terikat dengan pengalaman yang berhubungan dengan fenomena yang ada di
dunia, maupun pengalaman internal dalam alam sadar, reaksi, pemahaman, dan persepsi dalam
berbicara dan memahami, di samping tindakan linguistik (Halliday, 1978: 332). Fungsi ini
merefleksikan kejadian dan pengalaman, baik secara objektif maupun subjektif. Dalam hubungan ini,
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 252 transitivitas merupakan hal yang dibahas ketika membicarakan fungsi ideasional. Fungsi ini tidak
hanya menspesifikasi pilihan secara semantis, tetapi juga mendefinisikan kealamian realisasi
strukturalnya. Fungsi ideasional biasanya direpresentasikan oleh sistem transitivitas dalam tata bahasa.
Sistem transitivitas terdiri atas enam proses, yaitu proses material, proses relasional, proses mental,
proses verbal, proses behavioral, dan proses eksistensial.
1. Proses dalam Novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya
Dalam novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya ditemukan proses transitivitas.
Untuk membedakan proses yang terdapat dalam kedua novel tersebut, berikut disajikan hasil analisis
dan pembahasannya.
a. Proses Material Novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR)
Dalam novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) paling banyak ditemukan proses material. Proses
material adalah process of doing. Proses ini biasanya diindikasikan oleh kata kerja yang
mengekspresikan tindakan, baik berupa tindakan nyata maupun abstrak. Biasanya, dalam proses
material muncul dua partisipan, yaitu actor dan goal. Actor biasanya menunjukkan subjek, sedangkan
goal menunjukkan objek. Kedua partisipan ini biasanya direalisasikan dengan menggunakan kata
benda. Dominasi proses ini dalam L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dikarenakan novel ini memiliki genre
fiksi remaja yang mengangkat tema cinta dalam traveling.

Tokoh utama yang bernama Carrie melakukan traveling ke beberapa kota dan tempat di
Roma. Oleh karena itu, banyak muncul kata kerja aktif yang menunjukkan proses material.
Seperti pada kutipan yang menceritakan saat Carrie pertama kali menginjakkan kaki di Roma, saat
dia bertemu dengan Demas.

b. Proses Material Novel Cinta Selamanya
Sama halnya pada novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR), dalam novel Cinta Selamanya juga proses
yang dominan muncul adalah proses material. Novel Cinta Selamanya ini mengangkat kisah nyata
dari penulisnya yang bernama Fira Basuki. Novel ini didedikasikan untuk mengenang suaminya yang
telah meninggal. Fira Basuki ini merupakan seorang penulis wanita yang telah banyak menghasilkan
karya, namun novel yang menceritakan hidupnya hanya novel Cinta Selamanya. Proses material
banyak ditemukan dapat diasumsikan karena Fira Basuki, selain menjadi penulis, dia juga adalah
seorang wanita karier yang sering melakukan kunjungan kerja ke berbagai negara.

Dari kutipan di atas dapat dilihat bahwa proses material adalah proses yang menunjukkan
aktivitas yang dilakukan oleh seseorang memperlihatkan adanya aktivitas yang dilakukan oleh actor
terhadap goal. Proses material sebagai ekspresi aktivitas fisik, tidak hanya dalam pengertian fisik yang
sempit, seperti mempertukarkan benda atau melakukan perbuatan terhadap suatu benda. Untuk
mewujudkan hal itu, perlu partisipan yang berpartisipasi, baik sebagai actor maupun sebagai goal.
Hal ini dijabarkan dalam tabel berikut ini.
Tabel 1.

Dalam tabel dapat dilihat hubungan antara partisipan satu dengan yang lainnya. Hubungan ini
dikuatkan dengan proses material. Sirkumstan tidak selalu hadir dalam tiap proses, tetapi kehadiran
sirkumstan memberikan penjelasan mengenai proses tersebut secara lebih terperinci.
2. Proses Relasional dalam Novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya
Proses relasional dikatakan sebagai proses yang menunjukkan atau berfungsi untuk
menghubungkan antara satu entitas dengan entitas yang lainnya. Dalam data, proses relasional
menduduki peringkat ketiga pada kemunculan di novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan keempat dilihat
dari kemunculan pada novel Cinta Selamanya. Proses relasional atributif ditunjukkan oleh kata kerja
be ataupun sinonim, dalam hal ini partisipan yang terlibat direalisasikan dengan kata benda yang
disebut dengan carrier dan atribut. Kalimat dengan proses relasional atributif tidak bisa dijadikan

3. Proses Mental dalam Novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya
Dalam data, proses mental ada pada peringkat kedua pada novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR)
ketiga pada novel Cinta Selamanya dilihat dari persentase kemunculan. Proses material tdak hanya
dibicarakan secara kasat mata, tetapi juga mengenai apa yang dirasakan atau yang dipikirkan.
Halliday membagi proses mental menjadi tiga kelas, yaitu kognisi, afeksi, dan persepsi (Eggins,
1994). Proses mental juga dibedakan dengan proses material dari jumlah partisipannya. Dalam proses
mental harus ada dua partisipan yang terlibat. Salah satu partisipan harus manusia yang disebut
sebagai senser, sedangkan partisipan yang lain disebut phenomenon. Ada dua tipe phenomenon dalam
proses mental, yaitu aksi dan fakta. Beberapa proses mental yang ditemukan dalam data berikut.

4. Proses Verbal dalam Novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya
Proses verbal biasanya terdiri atas tiga partisipan, yaitu sayer, receiver, dan verbiage. Sayer
adalah yang bertanggung jawab atas terjadinya proses verbal itu, tidak harus merupakan partisipan
hidup. Receiver merupakan simbol kepada siapa proses verbal itu ditujukan. Selanjutnya, verbiage
adalah pernyataan yang dinominalisasikan oleh proses verbal.

5. Proses Behavioral dalam Novel L'eternita di Roma (LDR) dan Cinta Selamanya
Menurut Halliday (dalam Eggins, 1994), proses tingkah laku adalah perpaduan antara
proses material dan proses mental. Oleh karena itu, makna yang diperoleh juga merupakan
perpaduan anatara proses material dan proses mental. Mayoritas proses ini hanya memiliki satu
partisipan, yang disebut sebagai behaver. Dalam hal ini, walaupun ada partisipan lain yang
terlibat, bukan merupakan statement ulang proses yang disebut phenomenon.

Proses behavioral pada novel Cinta Selamanya berdasarkan kemunculannya pada tingkat kedua setelah
proses material karena tokoh utama pada novel ini mengalami kedaan yang sangat sulit. Hal ini dikarenakan
tokoh utama kehilangan suami untuk selamanya.

Pada contoh di atas, proses behavorial hanya dapat bervalensi dengan satu partisipan.
Proses ini menunjukkan aktivitas fisiologis dalam pengertian luas, baik perilaku fisik yang dapat
dilihat seperti gerakan badan, mimik, maupun perilaku fisik yang lebih abstrak.
E. Simpulan
Transitivitas pada novel L’eternita di Roma dianalisis dari segi proses, dominan muncul adalah
proses material diikuti oleh proses mental. Hal ini dikarenakan novel L’etenita di Roma merupakan
novel bertema traveling dan percintaan remaja. Pada novel Cinta Selamanya, proses yang dominan
muncul adalah proses material, sedangkan selanjutnya adalah proses behavioral karena novel ini
merupakan kisah nyata penulis yang kehilangan suami.
Proses material dominan muncul dikarenakan tokoh pada kedua novel merupakan wanita karier
dan sering melakukan pekerjaan dan perjalanan fisik. Proses mental muncul diakibatkan karena tokoh
pada kedua novel mengalami konflik yang cukup pelik karena sama-sama ditinggalkan oleh pasangan.

ENGLISH
Beny Husodo Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta. [email protected]
081567908033 Abstract
Indonesia has many languages, as noted in kompasiana.com at 2015 by Nasir, Indonesia has
749 region languages and each language has specific characters that surely make Indonesia full of
students with multiple backgrounds of languages, it is clear that ESL students in Indonesia have
diversity in their pronunciation. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to describe the diversity of
pronunciation which analyze in phonetics and why the diversity exists, with focus on ESL students’
major problems in articulating (θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ), that phonemes are pronounced by ESL
students in Cilacap, Central Java. In this paper, the writer gives another point of view, this paper is
not discusses in the term of error analysis or contrastive analysis in pronunciation but it discusses in
the term of interlanguage, Selinker (1972) referred interlanguage as second language systematic
knowledge independent of both first language and second language (Fauziati, 2011). Therefore, their
mistake is not taken as mistake but as progress when ESL students learn the second language.
Keywords: phonetics, pronunciation variations, Javanese ESL students.
Paper Background
Indonesia has 749 region languages, the richest language’s owner in the world after New
Guinea, around 800 region languages (Nasir, 2015), multiple cultures and races (Hafil, 2015), this
matter not only become luck for Indonesia but also lack when they learn second language, ESL
students from Indonesia are mostly influence by their mother tongue dialect, they has difficulties to
reduce the mother tongue dialect influence. For example, when Indonesia EFL learners pronounced
“go” that should be pronounce /gɑʊ/ but Indonesian learners usually pronounced /go/, this matter
because sound /aʊ/ does not exist in Indonesian (Riyani & Prayogo, 2013).
This case was also proven by Muhaji & Sholeh (2015), in University of Kanjuruhan Malang,
they investigated pronunciation problems faced by English department students. The result showed as
that the students has difficulties in removing their mother tongue dialect influence, difficulty to
pronounce the English phonetics, difficulty in determining the stressed and unstressed syllables,
difficulty in recognizing and pronunciation weak sounds, difficulty in pronouncing the suffix of a
word correctly.
In this current research, the writer gives another point of view, the writer do not discusses in
the term of error analysis or problems in pronunciation but it discusses in the term of interlanguage,
Selinker (1972) referred interlanguage as second language systematic knowledge independent of both
first language and second language (Fauziati, 2011). Therefore, their mistake is not taken as
mistake/problem but as a progress when ESL students learn the second language.
In order to make different research from the previous, the writer takes data from Cilacap of
Central Java. Cilacap was taken by the writer as setting of place of this research because Cilacap has
special-specific characteristics region language (Indonesian known as ngapak language), with focus on
ESL students’ major problems in articulating (θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ),. Therefore this paper try to
describe the glides which make by ESL students in Cilacap in articulating (θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ),
and what are the causes.
257 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 258 A Brief Theoretical Review
Pronunciation is the act or manner of pronouncing words; utterance of speech. In other words,
it can also say as a way of speaking a word, especially a way that is accepted or generally understood.
In the senses, pronunciation entails the production and reception of sounds of speech and the
achievement of the meaning (Kristina & Rarasteja, 2006). This definition gives a briefer
pronunciation’s definition. It contains some important keys in pronunciation: act, speaking, production
and reception of sound. It means that the words being pronounced should be understandable, in order
get the understandable, people should have clear knowledge about phonetics. Phonetics, like any science, develops over time. New facts emerge, new theories are created,
and new solutions to old problems are invented (The International Phonetics Association, 2007). The
notational system of any science reflects facts and theories, and so it is natural that from time to time
the Alphabet should be modified to accommodate innovations.
Ogden (2009) stated that “Phonetics itself means the study of the sounds of speech” (Ogden,
2009). For further more phonetics provides objective ways of describing and analyzing the range of
sounds humans use in their languages (McMahon, 2002). Those people give a clear definition and
according to them, phonetics is study of how sounds are produced and the position of mouth when the
sounds are produced. Meanwhile, according to Laver (1994) phonetics refers to any learnable aspect
of use of the vocal apparatus. Based on the definitions, the writer concluded that phonetics is the study
of sound and how they are produced. Phonetics has the organization which focus in standardized them,
it call as The International Phonetics Association or IPA. Although they has the standardized the world
is so complex, when they learn about second language (especially English as International language)
some phonemes cannot pronounced because of some causes, finally comes variation.
Here are the examples of some pronunciation variation in some country based on Lin (2014)
research, in Vietnamese, they are hard to pronounce (t) and (d) in the final words because the final
consonant does not exist in Vietnamese and then Japanese, in Japanese the entire words end with
vowel so they have problems in pronouncing consonant in the final words, and so many more.
As said before though the standardized was made all become equal but the word is too
complex, therefore interlanguage is needed as the subject to examine the variation. Selinker (1972)
referred interlanguage as second language systematic knowledge independent of both first language
and second language (Fauziati, 2011).
Method
This paper described the glides which make by ESL students in Cilacap in articulating (θ), (ð),
(ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ), and what are the causes based on the principle of descriptive qualitative research,
therefore in order to make sure there is no manipulation of data the writer asked the subject to read the
text which contained (θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ), and the record their voice.

alveopalatal and voiced. Phoneme (ʤ) are mostly shifted by four of the subject, it shifted into (ʧ)
which pronounced affricative, alveopalatal and voiceless. Only subject five is good enough to
pronounce (ʤ). Discussion
In this discussion, the writer answers the aims of this paper, which the aims are to describe the sound shift of (θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ) and why they are shifted. In the finding above, the writer
finds that phoneme (θ), in the initial and final word which pronounced by the five subjects, it sound
clear enough, but the problem arise when (θ) take place in the middle, the sound are shifted from (θ)
become (t) which articulated by stop, alveolar and voiceless, it also happen in the final word of
phoneme (ð). Furthermore, the writer found new result when subject read “think” (θɪŋk), the subject
lost the final (k), therefore they pronounce “think” like pronounce “thing”, the writer assumed that
ESL students in Indonesia are unaccustomed to pronounce (ŋk) and (ð) in the final because it does not
exist in Indonesian alphabet.
Next are (ʃ) and (ʒ), the subjects are clear enough to pronounce (ʃ) both in initial and middle or
final, but the shift arise when subjects pronounce (ʒ) which should be pronounced by fricative,
alveopalatal and voiced it shifted become (ʃ) which pronounced fricative, alveopalatal and voiceless.
Henceforth are (ʧ) and (ʤ), like above phoneme (ʧ) are clear enough pronounced by the subject but
the shift arise when the subject pronounce (ʤ), it should be pronounce affricative, alveopalatal and
voiced but shifted become (ʧ) which pronounced affricative, alveopalatal and voiceless. The writer
assumed that this case because the manner of articulation of alveopalatal voiced phonemes is rare in
Indonesia.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 261 Conclusions
Avoiding the problems in articulating the English pronunciation, this paper is concern to discover the variations of pronunciation in Indonesia with brief explanation. It should be received as a progress when ESL students in Indonesia learn second language. The result is glide phonemes found in the middle (θ), final (ð), middle (ʒ), and in the final and middle (ʤ). The glides not found in
phoneme (ʃ) and (ʧ). The writer assumed that cases caused by there are not existences of phonemes
(θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ), (ʤ) in Indonesia, however, if they can pronounce phonemes (θ), (ð), (ʃ), (ʒ), (ʧ),
(ʤ) it should be pass by hard study, and also the subjects has difficulties in removing their mother
tongue dialect influence and difficulty to pronounce the English phonetics correctly. References

ABSTRACT
The current study deals with swearwords used by Instagram users. This research aims
to find out the swearwords classfications (its function and theme), pragmatic functions of
the swearwords used, and the most dominant function, theme, and pragmatic use of
wearing. The writer has found fifty data taken from both Instagram users’ captions and
comments on celebrities’ photos. The writer analyzes swearing types found on Instagram
using Ljung’s swearing function and theme. After analyzing the swearwords using
Ljung’s categories the writer would like to discuss the pragmatic of the swearwords used
by using Trudgill and Andersson’s category. The writer found twelve themes in
swearwords function from fifty data. There are curse (4 %), adjectives of dislike (10 %),
modal adverbial (2%), name calling (24%), noun supports (10%), affirmation (12%),
adjective intensifier (12%), emphasis (6%), interjection (8%), expletive interjection (8%),
literal meaning (2%), and anaphoric use of epithets (2%). There are six categories of
swearwords theme used; sexual activities (48%), scatological theme (20%), religious
theme (16%), ancentors theme (4%), animal theme (20%), and prostitution theme (2%).
There are four categories in pragmatic use of swaerwords on Instagram; expletive
swearing, abusive, humorous, and auxiliary. There are fourcategories of pragmatic use of
swearwords used in Instagram; expletive swearing (6%), abusive swearing (18%),
humorous swearing (22%), and auxiliary swearing (68%). The most dominant function of
swearwords is name-calling with twelve occurrences and 24% percentage. The most
dominant theme used in swearing words data taken is sexual activities with 24
occurrences and 48% percentage. The most dominant pragmatic use of swearing is
auxuliary swearing with 34 occurences and 68% percentage.
Keyword: swearwords, swearing, Instagram
A. INTRODUCTION
Swearwords seem so common these days. Moreover, the developments of social
networks also influence the use of swearwords. Swearwords like holy shit! damn it! hell
no! seem so very easy to find in movies, songs, and even daily posts on social networks.
There are some reasons why the writer chooses swearwords used by Instagram
users as the object of the current study. The first, Ljung (2011: 3) stated that studies on
swearwords were a long neglected are of research until the research was increased by the
year 1970’s. So, the writer would like to contribute herself in swearwords study found in
social network especially Instagram. The second, the writer is interested in analyzing the
264 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 265 pragmatic function of swearing used by Instagram users. And the last is the writer wants
to analyze the pattern of swearing used by Instagram users.
Based on the arguments the writer has shown above, the writer wants to limit this
study on swearwords used by Instagram users to comment on celebrities posted pictures
and how celebrities use swearwords as their Instagram captions. Therefore, the writer has
arranged the research questions as follow:1) What are swearwords theme used, 2) What
are the function classification of swearwords used?, 3) how is the percentage of the
swearwords used?, and 4) what are the most used swearword(function and theme)? The
result of this study can contribute to the field of swearing study. It can also show to
readers the different use of swearing in social network. Moreover, this study also
contributes to the study of cyber-pragmatic, specifically in impoliteness side.
B. LITERATURE REVIEW
Hughes (2006) mentioned two kinds of swearing, formal and informal. Formal
swearing is a “ritual of social compliance and obligation”, such as in marriage, and court.
On the other hand, informal swearing constitutes “a transgression of social codes ranging
from the merely impolite criminal.” Montagu in Ljung (2011: 25) mentioned
classification of swearing. He mentioned that swearing can be either abusive, adjurative,
asservative, ejaculatory or exclamatory, execratory, expletive, hortatory, interjectional
and objurgatory swearing. Pinker (2007) in Ljung (ibid) argued that people argue in at
least five different ways: Descriptive swearing (e.g Let’s fuck!), Idiomatic swearing (e.g.
It’s fucked up!), abusive words (e.g Fuck you motherfucker!), Emphatic swearing (e.g It’s
fucking amazing), and cathartic swearing (e.g. Fuck!)
Ljung (2011) categorizes swearing based on its function and themes. He divides
swearing functions into three, the stand-alone, the slot filters, and replacive swearing. He
divides swearing themes into religious theme, animal theme, scatological theme, mother
theme, and minor theme. Ljung (2011) categorizes swearing based on its function and
themes. He divides swearing functions into three, the stand-alone, the slot filters, and
replacive swearing. Stand-alone swearing expressions have a less marked illocutionary
character, for example the expletive interjections expressing anger, surprise, pain and
other feelings, such as God!, Shit!, Jesus Christ!. Other stand-alone swearing expressions
are affirmations, denials, ritual insults and name-calling.
Ljung (2011) mentioned some types of swearing, they are: Religious theme,
scatological theme, sex organ theme, sexual activities, mother/family theme, and minor
theme.

(KBSP) IV 2016 C. RESEARCH METHOD
The data for this research is sentences which consist of swearwords found in
comments and captions on Instagram, specifically, they are taken from popular accounts
of Instagram users such as singers, models, actors, actresses and so on. The method of
data collection is called documentation. After the data are collected, the writer analyzes
the data, categorizes them based on the swearing category, analyzes the pattern used in
swearing, and identifes the data into pragmatic analysis of swearing used. After doing
such analysis, the writer group them based on the categorization and then report them in
finding.
D. FINDINGS
The writer has collected 50 data taken from both Instagram users’ captions and
comments on celebrities’ photos. The writer analyzes swearing types found on Instagram
using Ljung’s swearing function and theme. After that, the pragmatic of the swearwords
were analyzed by using Trudgill and Andersson’s category. This part will be divided into
three, swearing categorization (function and theme), pragmatic use of swearing, and the
percentage of swearing, and the most dominant swearwords used by Instagram users.

Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 269 Based on the pragmatic function of swearing, the writer analyzed the
pragmatic function of swearing used using Trudgill categorization of pragmatic
function:
a. Expletive swearing means swearing is used
to express emotions without
directing it to others. Expletive swearing is usually used when angry, From 50
data, There are three data included into exxpletive data because there is no
intention from the user to say it. There is no clear direction to whom they say
it, just like Wtf (number 41), Fuck u (number 20), and Whoever tells u ur ugly
or dumb n shit their ugly and dumb cuz they don’t know what’s perfect n
that’s u….. (number 48)
b. Abusive swearing is used to harm the hearer. from 50 data the writer found 9
data used as abusive swearing. Here are the data categorized as abusive
swearing which may cause to harm the hearer: We can change the world if you
weren’t in it Justin fuck bever. In writer’s opinion, the user use this swearing
to directy harm Beliebers. The effect might come up are some protest from
Bieber’s Fans. That’s why it includes abusive swearing.In madonna those
young days will never ever come back.. you’re old as fuck now… Bye. the user
tend to mock Madonna because she is not young anymore and affirm that she
is not as good as she was young.
c. Humorous swearing often looks like abusive swearing, ‘but has the opposite function.’ I t
is just used as joking. From 50 data the writer found 11 data which are categorized as
Humorous swearing. Swearing as joking can be calling herself with swearing like Bad
bitchezz only (taken from Miley’ account), or Bitchimmadonna (Madonna).
This data are taken from celebrities captions in whch they have no intention to
harm anyone. Moreover Miley wrote a caption like this Fucking Vegas, of
course this is just a joking. Nobody want their city to be added with swearing
that way.
d. Auxiliary swearing. From 50 data taken there are 34 data included in
Auxiliary swearing in which they are used as just auxiliaries, no intentions, as
a joke or even to harm people or undirect swearing (expletive). In describing
the use of auxiliary swearing can be easier if we use some speech acts
categories like the writer has mentioned above, for example:

From the three tables above, we can see the most dominant swearwords used. The
first is the function of swearwords. From the table above, the most dominance
swearwords function used by Instagram users is as name calling with twelve occurrences
and 24% as the percentage. The second is the theme of swearwords. The most dominant
theme of swearwords used is sexual activities. A seen on the table, it has 26 occurrences
and 52% as the percentage. The last is pragmatic use of swearing. The most dominant
pragmatic use of swearing is as auxiliary with 34 occurrences and 68% as the percentage.
E. CONCLUSION
After analyzing sweaing used by Instagram users either to make a caption or
comment on one’s picture the writer concludes that using same swearwords in different
context may mean different interpretation. Swearing can be a used as humor, or even
abuse someone. But the most important thing is to say something in the proper way based
on the context.

The objectives of this research are to describe whether or not teaching speaking
by using discussion method can increase students’ speaking skill and to identify the
difficulties faced by the students in using discussion as method to increase their speaking
skill in grade XI of SMA M 5 Jaten. In achieving the objectives of this research, the
researcher uses collaborative research. Each cycle of this research consists of four steps:
planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. The subjects of this research consist of
26 students. In analyzing the data the researcher uses both qualitative and quantitative
analysis. Qualitative analysis was done based the process of teaching and learning
process. While quantitative analysis done based to the scores of pre-test and post-test.
There were three cycles in this research, each cycle conducted in two meetings. The
result of the research shows that the average score of pre-test is 37.6, post-test one is 5.6,
post-test two is 2 53, post-test three is 3 66.15 and final test is 63. Those scores indicate
that the students have an improvement in speaking ability. Through discussion the
students become more confident and more critical. Then, it can be called that teaching
speaking through Discussion is succesful to improve students speaking ability in SMA M
5 Jaten. There were some weaknesses of discussion; (1) just problematic materials could
be used, (2) some of them depend on with clever students, (3) many students may
dominated the discussion, (4) subjective scoring, (5) moves slowly the class, and (6) takes
long time.
Key word: Speaking skill, Discussion, Improvement, Teaching Method, Collaborative
research.
A. Introduction
Tarigan (1990:3-4) defines speaking as a language skill which is developed in
childhood preceded with listening skill. It means that speaking is the basic skill in
learning language. Indeed, people mostly use language for communication. Hornby
(1997:37) states that through speaking language learners will be judged upon most in real
life situation. It is an important part of everyday interaction and most often the first
impression of a person based on his or her ability to speak fluently and comprehensively.
Discussion is one of the methods which can be used to teach speaking. According
to Jones (1994:1) “discussion is an activity in which people talk together in order to share
information about a topic or problem or to seek possible available evidence or a solution”.
Discussion is one of the way people can improve their speaking ability with talk to each
other. It is means to make students active to communicate with others then they can
learn second language not intentionally. The student ought to build their critical thinking
and being brave to say what in their main. The aims of the discussion based on Brookfield
(2006:2) are to develop critical, informed understanding, enhance self-critique, foster
appreciation for diverse views, and help people take informed action.
Previous studies have studied about method of teaching speaking, for example
Nugroho (2011) used animated video, Chandra (2008) used language game for teaching
speaking, Hanim (2011) used U-shape seating arrangement for teaching speaking,
Awaliaturrahmawati (2012) used outdoor activities to increase speaking skill, Hartati
272 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 273 (2012) used games to improve students speaking skill, Ristyawati (2012) used telling
short story to improve students speaking skill, Wijayani (2012) used stimulation to
improve students speaking skill, Salam (2011) used Role –Play to improve students
speaking skill, and Sulistyatini (2011) used semantic mapping to improve students
speaking skill. Nevertheless research on the use of discussion has never been studied
before, therefore this study to fill the gap.
B.
Literary Review
1.
Speaking Skill
Tarigan (1990:15) states that “speaking is ability to produced articulation
sounds or sentences that express an idea or feeling”. Based on his theory speaking
is the device to communicate ideas arranged and developed depending on listener
needed. Then, Hurlock (1998:176) states that “speaking is language form that used
articulation or sentences that used for delivered mean of the idea”. He defines that
the idea of speaking is the effective one for communication, broader, and the
important one. Hurlock (1998:176) speaking not only engages coordination
between the different voice muscle mechanisms, but also has a mental aspect
which is a capability to catch the meaning and the sound produced. According to
Tarigan (1990:15) the goal of the speaking is “communication”. For the
effectiveness to deliver the meaning of the idea then both the speaker and the
listener ought to understand the idea of the conversation. There are many aspects
of speaking skill there are utterance, Vocabulary, grammar, content and meaning,
and pronunciation.
2.
Notion of Discussion
According to Jones (1994:1) “discussion is an activity in which people talk
together in order to share information about a topic or problem or to seek possible
available evidence for solution”. Arends (2008:74) states that “discussion is to
engage in verbal interchange and to express thought on particular subjects”.
Tarigan (1985:36) states that “discussion is one of the methods that solve the
problems through think group, cooperation, and steps”. Brookfield (2006:2) states
that “discussion is discipline and focused exploration of mutual concerns but with
no end point predetermined in advance”. According to Jones (1996:1) there are
types of discussion;
a. The whole-class Discussion is the type generally referred to when
facilitators employ the discussion method. The facilitator simply leads an
informal discussion involving the class as a whole. The facilitator, as the
director of the discussion, asks questions, clarifies student comments, and
makes tentative summaries to help students achieve understanding of the
topic.
b. Debate is generally used in the classroom as a small- group technique,
with a small number of students teamed on either side of an issue. Each
team is given a specific amount of time to present its "side" of the issue.
The members can alternate presentations and often are identified as "pro"
and "con" with respect to the issue. Rebuttals of specific time duration
then follow the presentations. Upon conclusion of the debate, the
facilitator can enter into a whole-class discussion on the issue.
c. Position Reversal Debate is similar to debate, except both groups are
required to take notes on the other team 's "position presentation." Teams
then switch positions and debate the other point of view using the notes.
They then work on solving the problem that started the debate utilizing
vantage points from both points of view. This discussion format helps
students develop conflict resolution, problem solving, and consensus
building skills.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 274 3.
Previous Study
There have been some previous studies on method of teaching speaking;
Nugroho (2011) had conducted a research on the use of Animated video to improve
speaking skill. He found that the animated video could improve the students’
speaking skill especially in using grammar, using the appropriate vocabulary, and
pronouncing the words correctly. Candra (2008) had conducted a research on the
use of Language Games in teaching speaking skill. Her research shows that most of
the students of the English as a Foreign Language are quite difficult to improve
their English speaking ability since they are accustomed to use their native
language in their daily life.
Although many previous study studied on methods of teaching speaking,
nevertheless research on the use of discussion has never been studied before,
therefore this study to fill the gap.
C.
Research Method
The writer used collaborative method. A collaborative method is the method that
the researcher makes collaboration with the teacher for teaching lessons. Katz and Martin
(1997: 1) state that “research collaboration” could be defined as the working together of
researchers to achieve the common goal of producing new scientific knowledge”. Then,
both researcher and the teacher are working together to achieve the goal.
The data of this research taken from the result of pre-test and post test. Technique
of collecting data, the researcher used instrument namely: observation, interview and
documentation. The steps in analyzing the data as follows:
1.

D.
Findings and Discussion
In this research the researcher found the students’ pronounciation and fluency
increased significantly.
In this research the researcher used discussion in the form of debate for her method
of teaching speaking. The following is the model used by the researcher:
Government
1
(Argument)
2
(Answer)
3
(Question)
So on
Opposite
1
(Argument)
2
(Question)
3
(Answer)
So on
The researcher divided the class into two groups government and opposite. After
that the teacher gave the students the issue for debate, the researcher gave them ten
minutes for building case. After finishing building case the researcher asked government
team to deliver their argument, then it was continued by opposite team argument and their
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 275 question. Next, the government team answered the opposite question and so on. Every
student have chance to deliver their argument, question or answer. Then, they have to
drill their speaking ability in discussion session.
Not all students speak only few of them. Just the speaker could measure their
speaking abilty. The researcher solved this problem by giving direction to the students to
organize their teams such as some of them delivered arguments, some of them asked
question, and some of them answered the questions.
The implementation of the discussion method was conducted in three cycle and
eight meetings. The researcher used discussion as her method in teaching speaking. The
researcher showed the increasing students’ speaking ability in the diagram bellow:
The diagram shows that the average scores were pre-test (37,6), post-test 1 (45,6),
post-test 2 (53), post-test 3 (66,15) and final test (63). The diagram above shows the
effectiveness of discussion method implemented in speaking class. The students increased
their speaking ability rapidly. It is supported by the result of the questionare. It is shows
96,15% students agreed to apply discussion as their method for learning English.
The result of the graphics above showed that teaching speaking using discussion
method was effective because it could improve students speaking ability. The students
could learn from her/his friends and solve the problems by discussion. Then, the teacher
was not as the main source of the materials but her/his friends. The students who had the
background knowledge tried to explain to their friends.
Although, the students still made errors in pronouncing some words such as: [s]
cell phone, [] study, [aI] mobile, [e] lesson, and [ɝː] disturb, the researcher also showed
students’ errors as follows:

The student improvement showed not only from their pronunciation but also from
their fluency. In pre test the researcher used theme of discussion should not bring mobile
phone to the school in the class in discussion session. The researchers choose this theme
because this theme is the hot issue in that school. Then they used it for discussion in the
pre and post test. Here are the example of student discussion with the theme should not
bring mobile phone to the school in pre and final test:
Name
Devi
Anggraini
Pre Test
“I am agree because very disturb
teaching learning, can make
student lazy”
Istiqomah
“I am agree because disturb
teaching learning process better
teaching...”
Jantung
Nawang
Did not say anything
Aliffunny
Pusparirin
“I am agree because because
disturb the study. I hope the
students pay attention the teacher
and study process”
Final Test
“In my opinion I am agree with the
case, because can lose students
concentration in study, to hit
school discipline, make students be
lazy to study. I think better should
not bring mobile phone to the
school. In other not disturb
students achievement in study “
“In my opinion I am agree with the
case, because if students bring
mobile phone to the school of
course will effected playing mobile
phone and not study, I think better
school should not give permission
to bring mobile phone to the
school”
“I am agree with it. Because if we
bring mobile phone to the school
can disturb teaching learning and
maybe they will use mobile phone
for something not useful, for
example: send message, facebook
or etc. I think better if we not bring
mobile phone to the school, so we
can more focus in teaching
learning process.”
“I am agree because bring mobile
phone to the school students can
play games and disturb teaching
learning process. I think better
should not bring mobile phone at
school or off it and save it in the
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 277 home, then the students can focus
in study”
After several treatments the students were more quickly memorized sentences they
wrote. Because they had been familiar with the vocabularies they could memorize faster
in post test than before in pre test.
Based on the result of research, discussion had advantage and disadvantage. There
were some advantages of discussion; (1) it gave entire class opportunity to deliver their
idea, (2) the students could drill the target language; (3) discussion could stimulate
critical thinking, (4) discussion involved the whole class, and (5) the students solved the
problem as teamwork. There were some disadvantages of discussion; (1) just problematic
materials could be used, (2) some of them depend on with clever students, (3) many
students may dominated the discussion, (4) the class moved slowly, and (5) discussion
took long time.
E.
Conclusion
Teaching speaking by using discussion method can improve students’ speaking
ability by drilling them in argument, question and answer. It can be seen from their
increasing average from pre-test till final test. By teaching speaking using discussion the
students were more active, and it increased student enthusiasm, and made them think
critically.

Abstract
According to Hyland (1998), hedging is the mean by which writers can present a
proposition as an opinion rather than a fact: items are only hedges in their epistemic
sense, and only when they mark uncertainty. Hedges can be either lexical (e.g.: assume,
may, possible) or structural (e.g. passive form) devices through which writers can show
their uncertainty towards the proposition. This study attempts to examine the types and
frequencies of hedging devices used in “Room for Debate” posted in New York Times
online website. Further, this study was conducted to investigate the possible functions of
hedging devices in “Room for Debate”. This research was conducted by using qualitative
method. The data consists of 150 opinion articles posted in the New York Times,
particularly in “Room for Debate” representing six disciplines including business,
economy, politic, environment, health, and technology. The total numbers of words
of the six sections were 55,015. The data were obtained by using documentation by
collecting and selecting articles posted in the New York Times, especially in “Room
for Debate” during the recent five years (2012-2015). Afterward, the data were
analyzed in accordance with surface features taxonomy and poly-pragmatic model from
Hyland (1998). According to this model, analysis of hedging in writing involves coding,
identifying, classifying, analyzing, describing and concluding.
The result shows that the total number of hedges found in the news articles of
“Room for Debate” posted on New York Times is 978. The writers of this column were
inclined to use modal auxiliary as one form of hedges with the frequency of 413 (42.2%).
The next considerable type of hedges found in this column is the category of epistemic
adverbs with the total of 186 (19%) followed by epistemic lexical verbs 140 (14.3%) and
hedging numerical data 83 (8.5%). Epistemic adjectives, passive constructions and
hypothetical condition have quite similar number in the column, that is 43 (4.4%), 55
(5.5%) and 48 (5%). On the other hand, the writers of “Room for Debate” seem to
reluctantly use epistemic noun, direct questions, and reference to limited knowledge for
each of them appears less than 1%. The study also revealed that hedging used in “Room
for Debate” performs three pragmatic functions. These are accuracy-oriented hedge that
help the writer to present the proposition or statement with greater precision. Meanwhile,
the use of writer-oriented hedge is for reducing the writer’s commitment to statement and
avoiding personal responsibility for propositional truth. The reader-oriented hedge allows
the writer to invite the reader’s involvement and personalize the information in the
proposition.

INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Study
Hedging has acquired considerable scholarly attention in recent years in relation
to linguistics studies. In general, hedging has shown to be an essential element of
different genres such as research articles (Hyland, 1998, 1999), advertisements
280 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 281 (Fuertes-Olivera et al., 2001) as well as newspaper opinion articles (Dafouz, 2003,
2008) and editorials (Abdollahzadeh, 2007). Hedging shows the degree of
tentativeness, possibility and/or politeness that writers use in their texts. According to
Camiciottoli (2003: 9), hedges help writers to present information in a clear,
convincing and interesting way to promote acceptance and understanding, as well as
reader-writer solidarity. Hedges can act as persuasive devices to affect and influence
the reader’s reactions to texts according to the values and established rules and
conventions of a discourse community.
Considering the significant of hedges, there are a large number of studies have
been conducted to investigate this phenomenon in academic and scientific discourse.
As evidence, the majority of studies on hedging are found to be concerned with
academic writing, particularly with research articles genre across different disciplines
and different languages (Salager-Meyer, 1994; Meyer, 1997; Skelton, 1997;
Namsaraev, 1997; Crompton, 1997; Hyland, 1994; 1996; 1998; Vartala, 2001; Lewin,
2005; Vold, 2006; Falahati, 2007; Martin, 2008; Vasquez & Giner, 2008). Hedging
has also been studied in genres even like architecture project descriptions (Cabanes,
2007) and legal discourse (Vass, 2004).
However surprisingly little attention has been given to the newspaper genre,
whilst this genre can be considered as “some of the most adequate examples of
persuasive writing” (Connor, 1996 cited in Dafouz-Milne, 2008), where writers should
be concerned about the choice of appropriate language to convey the information as
clearly an accurately as possible, and what is more important to achieve readers’
attention and trust. It is quite noticeable that there is another important news source in
the newspaper which is called “Room for Debate” containing opinion articles from
experts covered in the form of written debate. New York Times is one of the
newspapers which provide this column. In fact, the study on the use of hedges in
“Room for Debate” is still limited since not all newspaper provides this column and
this requires more studies to be conducted. Thus, the purpose of the present study is to
investigate the hedging devices used in “Room for Debate” posted in New York
Times online website. In this study, the writer focuses on the types and frequencies of
hedge used in articles from group debate in six topics including business, economy,
politic, environment, health, and technology. Further, this study will be conducted
to find out the possible functions of hedging devices in “Room for Debate” published
on New York Times online website.

LITERATURE REVIEW
A. Historical Background of Hedging
In the field of hedging studies, there is still little clarity and agreement as to
what counts as a hedge. In different studies hedges are defined differently, which
reflects the difficulty of determining what exactly the hedge is.
In the brief history of linguistics, based on Hyland (1998: 1), the term “hedge”
was introduced by Lakoff (1972) who defines a hedge as a word “whose job is to
make things fuzzier or less fussy”. The definition of hedges is expanded and enriched
by many scholars later. Brown and Levinson (1987: 145) state that a hedge is “a
particle, word or phrase that modifies the degree of membership of a predicate or a
noun phrase in a set”, which is a supplement to Lakoff’s definition.
Hyland (1996a: 437) argued that hedging devices “ do not fit into a neat scheme
of discrete categories which allows one meaning to be clearly distinguished from
others”, moreover assigning specific meaning exclusively to particular forms is not
always possible. The reason for this difficulty is that “hedging devices may convey a
range of meanings for particular users in particular contexts” (Hyland, 1998:156). Due
to the poly-pragmatic nature of hedging devices, which can cover an array of purposes
such as “weakens force of statement, contains modal expressions, and expresses
deference, signal uncertainty, and so on” (Hyland, 1998:103). Hyland (1998)
developed a fuzzy category model for hedging devices, which allows more than a
single unequivocal pragmatic interpretation of hedges and overlap of usage.
B. Hedging Functions in Poly-Pragmatic Model
Due to the poly-semous and poly-pragmatic nature of hedging devices, Hyland
confirms that assigning specific meanings exclusively to particular forms is not
possible. According to this model, hedges can cover an array of purposes such as
"weakens force of statements, contains modal expressions, as well as expresses
deference, signals uncertainty, and so on" (Hyland: 160). Hyland by proposing this
scheme tries to capture the multi-functional nature of the hedges which enables them
to have a range of meanings at the same time.
Figure 2.1: A model of scientific hedging (Hyland, 1998: 156)
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 283 As can be seen, Hyland (1998: 156) divided hedging devices in two main
categories: content-oriented hedges and reader-oriented devices. According to Hyland
(1998: 162) content-oriented hedges “serve to mitigate the relationship between
propositional content and a non-linguistics mental representation of reality; they hedge
the correspondence between what the writer says about the world and what the world
is thought to be like”. Content-oriented hedges further subdivided into accuracyoriented hedges and writer oriented hedges.
The accuracy-oriented hedges refer to “writer’s desire to express proposition
with greater precision” which are further divided into attribute and reliability hedges.
Based on Hyland (1998: 164) the first subtype of the accuracy oriented hedges,
attribute hedges, help writers to specify more accurately” how far their results
approximate to an idealized state and the second subtype, reliability hedges, indicate
the amount of writer’s certainty or uncertainty in a proposition.
Furthermore, Hyland (1998: 170) defined the second category of contentoriented hedges is writer-oriented hedges, which are often associated with higher level
claim than accuracy-oriented ones”. While accuracy-oriented hedges are propositionfocused and writer-oriented hedges are writer-focused and “aim to shield the writer
from the possible consequences of negotiability by limiting personal commitment”.
Based on Hyland (1998: 171), the most distinctive characteristics of writer-oriented
hedged is the absence of writer agentivity, so the common means of expressing this
type of hedge are passive constructions, ‘abstract rhetors’, epistemic lexical verbs with
judgmental and evidential meaning, attribution to the source of claim. This category of
hedges “helps minimize writers’ personal involvement and allows them to maintain a
distance from a proposition” (Hyland, 1998: 171).
Along with accuracy-oriented and writer-oriented hedges, Hyland (1998)
distinguished reader-oriented category of hedges. The main distinction between these
categories is the reader-oriented hedges mostly deal with the interpersonal interaction
between readers and writers. Hyland (1998: 182) considered personal attribution and
reference marked by pronouns such as I, we, my, our as the main indicators of readeroriented hedges. By using these markers, authors show that the propositions stated are
their “personal opinion, allowing the readers to choose the more persuasive
explanation” and have their own judgment (Hyland, 1998: 182).
RESEARCH METHOD
A. Research Type
This research is conducted by using qualitative method. According to Fraenkel
and Wallen (2000), the qualitative research approach seeks to explore and understand
people’s beliefs, experiences, attitudes, behaviours, and interactions, the goal of which
“is to understand the process and character of social life and to arrive at meaning
types, characteristics, and organizational aspects of documents as social products in
their own right, as well as what they claim to represent” (Altheide, 1996: 42). This
approach is particularly relevant in the present study because the researcher sought to
investigate and understand the underlying motivations (i.e. discourse functions) of the
use of the hedges in articles collected from “Room for Debate” in New York Times
website.
B. Research Object
The research object of this study is 150 opinion articles posted in the
influential and prestigious newspaper in the United States, New York Times,
particularly in “Room for Debate”. In addition, their opinion articles cover 6
varieties of topics that include business (abbreviated as Bsn), economy (Ec),
politic (Polit), environment (Env), health (Hlt), and technology (Tech). Each
topic consists of 25 opinion articles which are from 5 groups of debate. In other
words, there are 5 opinion articles in each group.
284 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 The articles will be selected randomly from “Room for Debate" published
in New York Times during the recent five years (2012-2015). The following table
provides the distribution of length of the article in words across disciplines.

C. Technique of Collecting Data
To carry out the present study, the writer uses the documentation for collecting
the data. The following are the steps for collecting the data:
a. Logging in to the New York Times online website.
b. Collecting 200 articles from the online archives of “Room for Debate” in the
New York Times online website based on the chosen topics that will be
analyzed. In this case, the writer chooses 6 topics that include business
(abbreviated as Bsn), economy (Ec), politic (Polit), environment (Env),
health (Hlt), and technology (Tech).
c. Saving all the texts into the computer to form a database of corpora.
d. Choosing 150 articles for the analysis after checking and controlling the
topics and the length of articles.
D. Technique of Analyzing Data
One of the main objectives of the present study is to identify and classify the
form of hedging devices used in “Room for Debate” in New York Times online
website. Another aim is to analyze the functions of identified hedges. In order to
achieve these objectives, the present study bases on theoretical framework proposed
by Hyland (1998: 99).
According to this model, analysis of hedging in writing involves the following
levels of linguistics description and inquiry:
1. Quantitative surface-level analysis of hedges employed in the particular
genre.
2. Pragmatic analysis of their functions (Hyland, 1998: 99)
The purpose of quantitative analysis is to characterize the extent of hedging and
its major forms in a representative sample of texts, while pragmatic analysis seeks to
identify the purposes served by items in particular cases.
FINDING AND DISCUSSION
A. The Forms and Frequencies of Hedging Devices Used in ‘Room for Debate’
Posted on New York Times Online Websites
The form of hedges analysis in this study refers to the ten types of hedges
composed by Hyland (1998). Those ten categories are called surface features taxonomy.
Essentially, the findings of the present study strongly indicates that news articles in
“Room for Debate” published in New York Time online website employs ten types of
hedges that can be seen through the following table.

The result shows that the total number of hedges found in the news articles of
“Room for Debate” posted on New York Times is 978. The writers of this column are
inclined to use modal auxiliary as one form of hedges with the frequency of 413 (42.2%).
The next considerable type of hedges found in this column is the category of epistemic
adverbs with the total of 186 (19%) followed by epistemic lexical verbs 140 (14.3%) and
hedging numerical data 83 (8.5%).
Epistemic adjectives, passive constructions and hypothetical condition have quite
similar number in the column, that is 43 (4.4%), 55 (5.5%) and 48 (5%). On the other
hand, the writers of “Room for Debate” seem to reluctantly use epistemic noun, direct
questions, and reference to limited knowledge for each of them appears less than 1%.
B. The Possible Functions of Hedging Devices in “Room for Debate” Posted on New
York Times Online Website The pragmatic analysis was carried out to identify the possible functions of
hedging devices which was in accordance with the adapted classification from an
approach, namely Hyland’s (1998) poly-pragmatic model of hedging functions. The
resulting working classification recognized three functional types of hedges that will be
discussed more in detail in the following.
1. Accuracy-Oriented Hedges
As has already been noted, this functional strategy is concerned primarily with
“writer’s desire to express proposition with greater precision” (Hyland, (1998: 162). The
category of accuracy-oriented hedge shows some interesting finding. The principal forms
used for this are for instances certain kinds of attribute type and reliability type.
Attribute hedges help writers to specify more accurately how far their results
“approximate to an idealized state” (Hyland, 1998: 164). This hedge has contribution for
emphasizing what the writer’s believe to be correct.
(1) Furthermore, movements of big lobsters make them more likely to be in the “right place”
to avoid adverse conditions, including unfavorably warm waters; better able to reseed
areas where stocks have been depleted. (Env, 604)
Some items in this relatively small class of adverbs therefore indicate that a
generalization is being made (Quirk et al, 1972:509) and therefore hedge the
accompanying statement:
(2) Although prescription drugs are heavily marketed, the F.D.A. generally requires that ads
disclose side effects. (Hlt, 810)
Quirk et al (ibid: 452f) refer to a category of intensifying adjuncts they call
‘downtoners’ which have a “lowering effect on the force of the modified verb”. The
purpose of downtoners in formal academic prose is to restrict the meanings and reduce
286 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 the qualitative and emotive implications of verbs, adjectives, and abstract nouns (Hyland,
1998: 135).
(3) Preventing death is usually desirable, and we have institutions and professions to serve
that purpose.(Hlt, 815)
The underlined words show that the writers tend to modify the assertions that
they make by toning down uncertain or potentially risky claims.
Epistemic adjectives serve to reduce the writer’s categorical commitment, the
inclusion of consistent with as a hedge being confirmed by a contrast with prove:
(4) The odds are, then, that we’ll end up with a vague textual guarantee. But a vague textual
guarantee is unlikely to persuade judges to mandate large-scale reform given their
cautious nature. (Polit, 430)
2. Writer-Oriented Hedges
Hyland (1998: 170) defined the second category of content-oriented hedges is
writer-oriented hedges, which are often associated with higher level claim than accuracyoriented ones”. While accuracy-oriented hedges are proposition-focused and writeroriented hedges are writer-focused and “aim to protect the writer from the possible of
negative consequences by limiting personal commitment”.
Based on Hyland (1998: 171), the most distinctive characteristics of writeroriented hedged is the absence of writer agentivity, so the common means of expressing
this type of hedge are passive constructions, ‘abstract rhetors’, epistemic lexical verbs
with judgmental and evidential meaning, attribution to the source of claim. This category
of hedges “helps minimize writers’ personal involvement and allows them to maintain a
distance from a proposition”.
(5) Historic records at the Municipal Archives indicate that New York City ran out of burial
space during the Great Depression. (Env, 591)
The writers also need to protect themselves against the hazardous consequences
of overstatement. Hedges here help writers avoid personal responsibility for statements in
order to protect their reputations and limit the damage which may result from categorical
commitments. One way writers achieve this is to employ evaluative that structures with
modal devices and non-agentive subjects (Hyland, 2005). Most commonly this involves
use of ‘abstract rhetors’ like the following:
(6) Studies show that when inmates are more connected to family members on the outside,
they create fewer problems on the inside. (Tech, 925)
Here, hedges are an important mean for anticipating a reader’s possible refusal of
a proposition and for presenting claims with precision and caution:
(7) It seems inevitable that video visitation will become a part of more correctional
facilities.(Tech, 927)
According to Hyland (1998), the writer’s main motivation for using writeroriented hedges is to make a shield for the self against any probable falsification of the
proposition. This is achieved through writers minimizing their involvement in the
proposition and keeping a distance from it.
3. Reader-Oriented Hedges
The reader-oriented hedges mostly deal with the interpersonal interaction
between readers and writers. They make the readers involved in a dialogue and address
them as thoughtful individuals who respond to and judge the truth value of the
proposition made as the following instances:
Within the judgement subset, speculative verbs indicate there is some supposition
about the truth of proposition. It comprises mainly conventional “performative verbs” (cf.
Perkins, 1983:94; Brown, 1992) which perform, rather than describe, the acts they label:
(8) To aid--and profit off of--those stymied by decision, I predict "programming
tastemakers," trusted figures who create TV playlists, not unlike a radio D.J. (Tech, 923)
The second types of judgments derive more obviously from inferential reasoning
or theoretical calculation than from speculation and are presented as deductions or
conclusions:
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 287 (9) To end these great inequalities, we've proposed a constitutional amendment to give
Americans an affirmative right to vote and empower Congress to protect that right. (
Polit,417)
Questions, as exemplified below, signal an important unresolved issue or the
tentativeness of a solution, but also they genuinely seek a response. In so doing, they
involve the reader more closely in the research and convey the communality of the
scientific quest (Hyland, 1998).
(10) Would the simplified genius of announcing tandems like John Madden and the late Pat
Summerall become lost in the technology to a younger fan base unappreciative of
historical analysis? (Tech, 976)
C. Conclusion
The overall results of the present study have shown that hedging phenomenon is
not merely used in academic or scientific discourse that has already been indicated by
numerous studies, but it also present in other genres, particularly in the online newspaper.
In this case, the hedging devices are used in “Room for Debate” on New York Times
which is regarded to be well-established and respectable newspaper.
The result shows that the total number of hedges found in the news articles of
“Room for Debate” posted on New York Times is 978. The writers of this column are
inclined to use modal auxiliary as one form of hedges with the frequency of 413 (42.2%).
The next considerable type of hedges found in this column is the category of epistemic
adverbs with the total of 186 (19%) followed by epistemic lexical verbs 140 (14.3%) and
hedging numerical data 83 (8.5%).
Epistemic adjectives, passive constructions and hypothetical condition have quite
similar number in the column, that is 43 (4.4%), 55 (5.5%) and 48 (5%). On the other
hand, the writers of “Room for Debate” seem to reluctantly use epistemic noun, direct
questions, and reference to limited knowledge for each of them appears less than 1%.
As regard, it can be said that modal auxiliaries do not only becomes the most
commonly hedge used, but these become an important type of hedge in news article as
well. Moreover, the finding shows that hedges are becoming the main features in news
articles since the writers in every discipline used these epistemic devices in conveying
their proposition.
Essentially, the finding reflects the fact that news article express three main
functions of hedging devices, as follows:
1. Accuracy-oriented hedges
These are used to help the writer to present the proposition or statement with
greater precision. These accuracy hedges are classified into two types, such as attribute
hedges that have function to specify how far a term accurately describes the reported
phenomena whereas reliability hedges are enable the writer to state the her/his assessment
of the certainty of the truth of the proposition.
2. Writer-oriented hedges
It is functioned to reduce the writer’s commitment to statement and avoid
personal responsibility for propositional truth. In other words, it is for showing a lack of
full commitment to the propositional content.
3. Reader-oriented hedges
This allows the writer to invite the reader’s involvement and personalize the
information in the proposition.

Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Al-Qalb in the Holy Qur’an and Its Implication for Character
Education
Mar’atus Solihah
[email protected]
Magister of Language Study Program of Language, Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta
Abstract
This study is carried out to describe the implication of al-qalb in the holy Qur’an
for character education. It is started with the explanantion of al-qalb in the
Qur’anic perspective, since the Qur’an is the guidance of human life. Then, it is
followed by brief dscription of character education. The research method used is
descriptive qualitative by using documentation, library research, and some
resources from variety references. The data is anayzed by selecting data which
relates to the topic. Afterwards, the information is organized and is decided in
which form should be entered in the context of analysis. And finally, the data is
tested for plausibility and confirmatibility that is well-described in the conclusion
and verification. The result of the research shows that al-qalb has two kinds of
meaning in the context of physical and psychological. Here, al-qalb is also the
main foundation of emotional, spiritual and intellecual quotient, for reason the
main function of al-qalb in the human body. As a result its important role of alqalb in the human character can be figured out that character education is mainly
al-qalb education.
Keywords: Al-Qalb; Qur’an; Character Education
1. Introduction
This study examines how the concept of al-qalb in the holy Qur’an has
implication in character education. While the character education is often
studied, the range of its implication with psychological aspects of human
being is relatively small. The previous study are “Semantic analysis on the
word Iqra’ found in the holy Qur’an Surah Al-‘Alaq” (e.g. Hasanah, 2011)
and “the concept of intellect (Aql) in the Holy Qur’an gives implication forr
education” (e.g. Sulistyowati, 2006). Few published studies focus on
psychological aspect of human being in relation with education field.
This study aims to explain the concept of a-qalb in the holy Qur’an and
character education, then implication of al-qalb in Qur’anic perspectives in
character education. The education becomes important issue all over the
world. This discussion gives theoritical review of character education and
pratically, it can be reference for the teacher to look for approach or methods
in building character education in teaching and learning process with highly
understanding aout al-qalb as psychological aspects of human being.
2. Background
The Quran as the guidance for human beings contains teaching to guide
humans to find their happiness in the world and hereafter (Qs. Al-Baqarah(2)
290 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 291 :28). It is believed because the content of the Qur’an has close relation with
nature of human (fitrah). The Qur’an is the holy book for human beings in the
world not only moslems but also all the humanity (Qs. An-Nahl(16) :16). The
Qur’an teaching is relevant with the life since the beginning until the end of
the world because it is the sources of all sciences and knowledge in the
universe as said in verse al-A’raaf(7) : 52, saying:

We have bestowedon them on book which we have made plain with
knowledge, a guidance and a blessing to true believers. (Zayid, 1980: 110).
The position of human being is the highest creature among others, that is,
by making them as His vicegerent in the earth. By the role, Allah has made
everything in the universe just for humans and gives them potential of
knowledge about it. These potentials consist of physical and psychological
aspects.
Physically, Allah give perfect appearance both in figure to human as said
in verse at-Thiin: 4 , saying:

We created man with the most noble image. (Zayid, 1980: 456)
Its function is to keep and promote the optimal growth in order to support
learning human process and do the role as vicegerent in the earth.
On the other hand, human also has psychological elements based on the
holy Qur’an. Psychological elements of human always include al-fithrah, alqalbu, an-nafs, ar-rukh, and al-‘aql . According to Viktor Frankl, the context
of psychological element itself has no religious meaning, but this dimension
is the main of mankind and the sources of human’s ability and characteristic
(Bastaman, 1997:53). For reason, human is union of physic, spiritual and
psychological elements. It is proved by the holy Qur’an in verse al-Nahl: 78
as follows:

Allah brought you out of your mothers’ wombs devoid of all knowledge, and
gave you ears and eyes and hearts, so that you may give thanks. (Zayid, 1980:
196)
The psychological element of human that becomes the center of
personality and moral for human is al-qalbu. It determines a person in the
perspective of good or bad person. In the holy Qur’an, al-qalbu is like a
certain place or box of faith, love and anxiety, sad and happy, mankind and
292 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 religiousness instruction. It contains description and spiritual experiences
include signs and high meaningful event with full of good-value. It has the
essence of advantage and disadvantage, the essence of faith and atheism
(Thoyibi, 2001:42). In the condition of the box, it can be filled or taken as
said in verse al-Hijr : 47

We shall remove all hatred from their hearts, and they shall recline on
couches face to face, a band of brothers.(Zayid, 1980: 188)
Related to its characteristic that becomes the center of human’s
personality, al-qalbu has close association with the character of human. For
reason, it influences the human’s point of view toward the world and the
entire phenomenon’s around it. So, character education has important role in
the human life. It is an umbrella term loosely used to describe the teaching of
human in a manner that will help them develop variously as well mannered
and well-behaved person. The concept itself includes social and emotional
learning, life skills education, critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and conflict
resolution. Following the word, “teaching the heart is teaching of human character,
because heart is the mirror of someone’ individuality” it can be assumed that
character education will make someone to be good and wise person. For
reason, its objective goodness of virtues is based on the fact that it affirms
human dignity, promote the well-being and happiness of the individual, serve
the common good, and define human rights and obligations.
3. Method
3.1.
Object of Research
There are 6.666 verse in the holy Qur’an in 30 sections. Some of them
contains the word al-qalb used in varieties context, include group of verses,
object and the word meaning. In the holy Qur’an, the word al-qalb is
mentioned 168 times in 45 chapters and 112 verses.
3.2.
Research method
In this research, a qualitative descriptive method is used. Bogdan and
Taylor (1972:5) define “qualitative method” as a kind of research that
produces descriptive data as the result include theoretical review, people’s
common perspective and unique human’s behavior. Deal with this concept,
Kirk and Miller(1986:9) states that qualitative descriptive is a part of
sociology which depends on observation to human’s language and human’s
attitudes fundamentally.
3.3.
Mehod of data collection
In this research, the technique of data collection is documentation.
Documentation may refer to the process of providing evidence (to document
something or to the communicable material used to provide such
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 293 documentation). In addition, the writer also uses library research or study of
the library (Hadi, 1981:4).
3.4.
Method of data analysis
Data analysis consists of three current flows activity: data reduction, data
display and conclusion drawing/verification.
a. Data Reduction
Data reduction refers to the process of selecting, focusing,
simplifying, abstracting, and transforming the data that appear in writtenup field or transcriptions. Data reduction is a form of analysis that
sharpens sorts, focuses, discards, and organizes data in such a way that
“final” conclusions can be drawn and verified. Qualitative data can be
reduced and transformed in many ways: through selection, summaries or
paraphrase and so on.
b. Data Display
A display is an organized, compressed assembly of information
that permits conclusion drawing and action. Designing a display-deciding
on the rows and columns of a matrix for qualitative data and deciding
which data, in which form, should be entered in the cells-are analytic
activities.
c. Drawing Conclusion and Verifications
From the start of data collection, the qualitative analysis is
beginning to decide what thins mean-is noting regularities, patterns,
explanations, possible configuration, casual flows and prepositions.
Verification may be as brief as a fleeting second thought crossing the
analyst’s mind during writing, with a short excursion back to the field
notes, or it may be thorough and elaborate, with lengthy argumentation
and review among colleagues to develop “intersubjective consensus” or
with extensive efforts to replicate a finding in another data set. The
meanings emerging from the data have to be tested for the plausibility,
their sturdiness, their “confirmatibility”-that is, their validity.

Character Education
In The New Lexicon Webster Dictionary of the English language (1972:
164), character is the total quality of a person’s behavior, as revealed in his
habits of thought and expression, his attitudes and interests, his action, and
his personal philosophy of life. According to Kertajaya (2010: 3), character is
a special identity of certain thing or individual. This special identity is
“original” and “machine” that influence how someone acts, behave, speech
and response something.
Regarding Hermawan Kertajaya (2010: 3), character is a special identity of
certain thing or individual. This special identity is “original” and “machine”
that influence how someone acts, behave, speech and response something.
Character possibly improves company or individual to reach continual
development because it provides consistency, integrity and energy. Good and
strong character person will have good moment to reach destination.
Aa Gym (2006: 66) states that character consists of four types. First, there
is weak character; such as, lazy, fear, easy to give up, etc. Second, it is strong
294 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 character; such as, brave, diligent, persistent, high spirit, etc. Third, bad
character: for example, egoist, greedy, arrogant, tricky, etc. Fourth, good
character: like honest, trusted, humble, etc. The main value that becomes
basic of character education is well-model.
As said in the holy Qur’an, human is creature with many various
characters. In the broaden frame, human has two opposed-characters, good
and bad.

“By the soul and Him that moulded it an inspired it with (knowledge of)
sin and piety: blessed shall be the man who has kept it pure, and ruined he
that has corrupted it! Thamous rejected (their Apostle) in the rebellious pride
when the most wicked of them broke forth.” ( Q.S.Asy-Syams: 8-10)
From some definitions above, it can be concluded that character is quality
or power of mental or moral, ethic or attitude of individual which is special
personality that differentiate one to another. Well-character person is
someone who can comprehend value and belief of society and is used as
moral power in the life.
Deal with The New Lexicon Webster Dictionary of the english language
(1972: 298), education is instruction or training by which people (generally
young) learn to develop and use their mental, moral and physical powers, the
art of giving such training, a gaining of experience, either improving or
harmful. Dewey (1950:89-90) defines education is a reconstruction or
reorganization of experience in order to be more meaningful, so this
experience is able to lead to next event.
The term of education comes from Greece, Paedagogy, means a child who
goes to school and come back to home with attendant. And the attendant itself
is called paedogogos. In the Roman, education has term “educate” means to
put out something inside. In English, education has technical word “to
educate” means improve moral and teach intellectual (Noer Muhadjir, 2000:
20-21).
According to George F.Kneller (1967:63), education has specific and
general meaning. In general context, education is an action or experience that
influences mental development, character or planning of the individual. In the
specific meaning, education is process of knowledge, values and skills
transformation from time to time, which is done by society through
educational institution, such as schools, universities, etc.
Based on some explanations above, it can be concluded that education can
be defined as follows:
1) Education contains establishing personality, development of capability, or
potential that needs to be extended; improvement of knowledge from
illiterate to literate, and the purpose where students can actualize their
selves optimally.
2) In education, there is relation between teacher and student. In this relation,
both have different position and feeling, but having same expedient.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 295 Doni A. Koesoema argued that character education has begun from Greek.
From this era, concept of arête from Greek people appeared, then concept of
Socrates that persuades human to start step with “recognize of myself” and
“illusion of truth-thinking”.
In accordance with Ni’matullah in the book Character Education by
Lickona (1992), character education is a education to construct individual
personality through manner instruction, where the result will be reflected in
the real action of person, like well-style, honest, responsible, respect, work
hard, etc.
There are two fundamentals of character education:
a. First, paradigm that views character education in the perspective of narrow
scope to moral education. In this paradigm, it is prearranged that certain
character is ready to present to students.
b. Second, taking a deeper look in the point of view of broader moral issues
understanding. This model observes character education as pedagogy,
arranging involved-person in the education world as main actor in the
character building. Paradigm stares at student as agent of interpretation,
comprehension and organizer that distributes the value through freedom.
Character education based on the Koran and the Sunnah is investing
particular character and giving motivation, so that the student can develop
unique character in the life. Allowing the student to realize much potential
inside their self since the beginning will build creative and tough personality
to face change of time.
Munir (2010: 7) states that the basic of character education is good and
bad value. Good value is symbolized by Angel’s value and bad value is
symbolized by devil. Human character is product of stretched and released
between good value in the form of positive energy and bad value in the shape
of negative energy. Positive energy consists of religious-ethic value originate
from believe in Allah, meanwhile negative energy includes immoral value
source from thaghut. Moral-ethic value has function as medium of purifying
and generating mankind esteem.
Koesoema (2007: 108-110) suggests five character education methods (in
implementation at school institution), that is:
a. Educating, Educate character means give comprehension for students
about certain value structure, prominence (if be done), and benefit (if not
be done).
b. Model, Humans study more from what they see. Model occupies very
important position. Teacher must have character that wants to teach
earlier. A teacher is someone who is followed and imitated; students will
imitate what the teacher does than what the teacher says.
c. Priority orientation, Clear priority decision must be determined so that
evaluation process of success or not the character education can become
clear.
d. Priority iplementation, Educational institution must be able to make
verification how far the realization of priority in education environment
through various kinds of components which present in that educational
institution.
296 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 e. Reflection, means reflecting into our own self. What have been done will
still separate with self-consciousness before it has not associated yet,
reflected with someone’s consciousness content.
Education in the perspective of Islam is a chain of steps to prepare cadres
as vicegerent of Allah on the Earth, so that capable enough to set up
prosperous, dynamic, harmonic and everlasting world. Overall, the purpose of
character education is encouraging to “produce” good children. With good
character, children will grow in well capacity and commitment to do the best
in right way and having goal of life.
In reference to Hidayatullah (2010: 32-38), steps of character education
are as follow:
a. Politeness (5-6 years old)
In this phase, children are taught some character value as follow:
1) Honesty
2) Identify which is right and wrong
3) Recognizing which is good and bad
4) Find what is allowed and forbidden.
b. Responsibility (7-8 years old)
One of the ways to teach responsibility is commanding to do prayer
(shalat) in this age. The implication is children will learn to be discipline
and regular. Furthermore, it will establish their future. As consequence,
children will gain knowledge in the choice of future life, decide dream,
and invest faith and belief. It means that the dream will be achieved if it is
based on strong faith. Faith will be realized if the best effort and high
discipline are done.
c. Caring (9-10 years old)
After children know about responsibility, the next phase is children
need to care to other, especially peer-friend. Respecting the older people
and giving attention to the younger one, appreciate other’s right,
cooperating with friends, etc.
d. Independence (11-12 years old)
“Experience is the best teacher in our life”, it means that more
experiences that children have will stabilize character and guide into
independency. Independence is marked by readiness to take a risk as
consequences of no-obedient to the rule. This independence is also showed
by attitude of children who can differentiate which one is right and wrong,
no just identify. In addition, children are able to apply what is ordered and
prohibited, comprehending the consequences of irregularity.
e. Social participation (13 years old)
In this stage, children are regarded to be ready involving in the society.
There are two minimum main values that is basically needed for children,
first, integrity and second, adjustment ability.
4.2.
Al-qalb in the Holy Qur’an
The word al-qalb is the basic form (masdar) from word qalaba means
transform, move, or turn around, whereas, the word al-qalb implies heart or
liver. Liver is called al-qalb because it continually beats and pumping the
blood physically. In the psychology context, al-qalb is a certain spiritual
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 297 condition that always turns around in determining any decision (Baharuddin,
2004: 124).
Relate this topic, Al-Ghazali (451-505 H/1059-1111 M) divide al-qalb
into two types, physical (jasmani) qalb and spiritual (ruhani) qalb. Physical
(jasmani) qalb is a plump of flesh placed in the inside of chest specifically
left side. Meanwhile, spiritual (ruhani) qalb is a soft thing (‫)لطيف‬, rabbani
and having the character of religiousness, indicating the nature of human who
are able to apprehend concept, knowledge and arif. It associates with the
physical heart (Rahayu, 2009: 83).
The view of al-qalb is in the spiritual context and it cannot be seen, except
by spiritual vision (mukasyafah). It is a place to get feeling, such as love,
learning, knowledge, information, scare, faith, and goodness.
Al-Jauziyyah (2005: 1-5) supposed three types of al-qalbu as follow:
1. Qolbun Shahih, is pure heart that anyone can not able to be safe in
Doomsday except if he comes to Allah with it.
2. Qolbun Mayyitun, the second type of heart is died heart, that there is no
life in it. It does not know the God, not worship Him appropriate with
command that He loves and blesses. It even always follows desire and its
own pleasure, in spite of with that God will wrathful and hates him.
3. Qolbun Maridl, the third type of heart is life heart but defect. It has two
substances that pushed and pulled. When it wins the fight so in it there is
love to Allah, faith, sincerity, and trusty to Allah, which is life substance.
In it also has love to desire, want and great effort to get it, envious,
conceited and arrogant, love to authority and make destruction in earth,
which is destructive and devastate substance.
In the holy Qur’an, the word al-qalb is mentioned 168 times in 45 chapters
and 112 verses. The amount of the word al-qalb found is 168. Like other
terms, the word a-qalb is also used in varieties context, include group of
verses, objects and the word meaning.
Based on the group of verse category, 56 verses is makiyah and 112 verses
is madaniyah. On the other side, based on the word meaning category, the
word qalb can be classified into some groups. The amount of the word qalb
according this category is 99 verses, for reason, some of the words contain
qalb is repeated with the same form and meaning.
It can be explained that there are 43 verses which explain about belief.

5.1.
Al-qalb as the Centre of Human Character
Al-qalb is the intuitional power of human. It means deeply rooted
knowledge based on pure experiences of life. It is the place of faith, soul,
light, and belief in God. Moreover, it is the centre of personality, good or
bad. The role of al-qalb in he human body is like the king and the soldier.
All of it works based on the order of al-qalb and can not deny it. Ibnu
Qaytim stated that al-qalb is the king, the entire bodies do what it orders;
accpet its guidance, all of the actions in the right way because of the
intention of al-qalb.
Because whole of bodies depend on al-qalb, so ‘aql as
development source of intellect and knowledge also relies on al-qalb. In
other word, it can be said that the centre of education is al-qalb, not in al‘aql. Al-‘aql is one of the parts of body will be operated by al-qalb. So, in
the teaching and learning process, it needs to take a funcion of al-qalb to
improve the potency of student (Hidayatullah, 2010: 121).
In other word, it can be said that al-qalb is the centre of human
character because it determines good or bad personality. Al-qalb is also
the main foundation of emotional, intellectual and spiritual quotient. What
al-qalb feels, understands, decides, and detremines will influece the
concept and principle of al-‘aql. There is certain relation between al-qalb
as the emotional aspect and al-‘aql as the intellectual aspect of human.
The development of al-‘aql without al-qalb qill generate superficial
knowledge of reality. On the contrary, al-qalb without al-‘aql will make
someone just take spiritual view of reality. Morally, this person has high
consciousness, but the capability of technique and theory is minim,
because the physical dimension is not full-mastered. Hence, it needs
proportional relation because it will build compatible connection
(Baharuddin, 2004: 134).
5.2.
Character Education=Al-qalb Education
Al-qalb is the precious asset, because it is like sunglasses which
persuade the way human at or view. Relate to the nature of al-qalb, human
is created in pure al-qalb, but education and experience have certain
power in creating fetter of paradigm. Those fetter close the nature of pure
al-qalb, so that it isi not be able to think and look objectively.
For reason, character education ought to be capable enough to
stabilize the condition of al-qalb and change al-qalb in the better
condition. As mentioned before, the nature of al-qalb always turn around
and change without any exact reason. Moreover, the main purpose of
character education is encouraging of good character building.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 300 Baically, the nature of al-qalb as said above has close relation with
the basic of character education, as the main sources of good and bad
value. Those values are described more in positive and negative energy of
character. The implication of this relation, al-qalb of the human can be
categorized into al-qalb salim, al-qalb maridl, and al-qalb mayyit based on
condition of al-qalb. Moreover, each type will influence the human
though, view, attituede and personality in daily activity. And
unconciously, it determines somenone into good or bad person. So,
educating human character is essentially educating al-qalb because it is
the centre of human intellect, emotion and character.
White (in Sarumpaet, 2001: 12) argues that character building is
the best efort of humankind. It is the major purpose of good education
because it is the reason why education exists. Consequently, character
education in the family, school or society becomes the responsibility of
parents, teacher, and society.
Thus,this kind of condition becomes consideration especially in
developing high human sources. Education is not only giving the newest
and the most complete knowledge, but building strong belief and
character of srudent in order to improve the potency and find the aim of
life. Additionally, education in the school is not only teaching to read, to
write, and to calculate, then pass the examination and get good job, but
also teahing the student to be able to decide which one is right and wrong.
5.3.
Correlation between Al-qalb and Character Education
The correlation of al-qalb and character education as explained
before can be described in the diagram below:
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 301 Basic of Character Education Qalb Godly Potency Non‐Godly Potency Positive Value Negative Value Type of al‐Qalb
(Qalb salim, Qalb maridl, Qalb MAyit) The Main Function of al‐Qalb
IQ Qalb EQ
SQ
The Important Role of Character Character Eduation=al‐Qalb Education
The explanation of the diagram is the following:
First, al-qalb is spiritual dimension and has intuitional power. It is
the centre of good and bad and place of faith in God. This nature of alqalb make it has godly and non-godly potency. This fact appropriate with
the nature of human character, which the basic is good and bad value.
Both values are well described in the positive and negative energy. This
eergy will generate human character, faith, personality, capacity and
potency.
This case make qalb is classified into three types: al-qalb salim, alqalb maridl, and al-qalb mayyit. Al-qalb salim is pure nad health al-qab,
302 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 al-qalb maridl is sick heart with full of evil tempation where it makes
someone far away from God, and lastly al-qalb mayyit, it is died herat and
there is no life in it.
Then, rearding with the main function of al-qalb a the centre of
human personality, so that character education is very important to do.
For reason,it afects all of human aspects include intellectual (IQ), spiritual
(SQ), and emotional (EQ). So, well-character education is also educating
al-qalb in order to get strong human character. One of the aspects to be
considered is method and steps of character education which should be
started from childhood, teenager, and adult.
6. Conclusion
Character education plays important role in building human character as
part of education. For reason, the mankind will not attain perfection character
level without educational process. Terefore, the essence of character
education is forming the perfect human who have readiness and ripeness to
create humanitarianism civilization. Studying al-qalb in the holy Qur’an can
not be seprated from the esence of human as object of character education
wheres al-qalb is the result of character education. Al-qalb is the none which
is distinguished human from others. The difference is not in external
(physical) form but in internal (psychological). Actually, it manifests in
attitude of human personality. The choice of attitude toward the order and
prohibition of the God in daily activity, will determine what kind of person
reflected.
Purpose of character education in Qur’anis perspective is creating wellbehaved and strong personality of human. For that reason, character
education should be able to educate al-qalb as the center of human character.
It determines good or bad of person in applying God order. Moreover al-qalb
as the mirror of human personality also becomes the centre of human quotient
include intellectual quotient(IQ), emotional quotient(EQ), and spiritual
quootient (SQ). So, in the teaching and earning process, principle of character
building should be considered and applied in order to create perfects students
whom have high intellectuality, emotional intellecual(EQ) in daily interaction
and use al-qalb(SQ) as the basic of all the actions.

ABSTRACT
This research is about the analysis of the tasks in the textbook related to five components
of communicative competence. The objectives of this study are to explain what English
tasks are designed for five components of communicative competence development
reflected in English textbook and what are the frequency and the dominant type of task in
each competence. This research is qualitative research. The data are the tasks from the
textbook entitled ‘When English Rings A Bell’. To collect the data, the researcher uses
documentation method by doing some steps: read and understand the entire tasks in the
textbook for several times; mark the tasks that are including in five components of
communicative competence; type the tasks and code the marked tasks by writing the task
number, the chapter, and the page of the tasks; account the tasks that develop the
competences. The data were analysed by the theory of communicative competence
suggested by Celce-Murcia et al (1995) and analysed by using interactive model of
Huberman and Miles (1994). There are three steps in analysing the data; those are data
reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The result shows that the
textbook entitled When English Rings A Bell consists of 181 tasks and there are five
components of communicative competence that developed the tasks. The English tasks
that are designed to develop students’ discourse competence are cohesion, deixis,
coherence, genre, and conversational structure. The English tasks that are designed to
develop students’ linguistic competence are syntax, lexicon, phonology, and orthography.
In actional competence, there are knowledge of language functions include interpersonal
exchange, information, feeling, opinion, and future scenario. In sociocultural
competence, there are sociocultural contextual factor, stylistic appropriateness factor,
and cultural factor. In strategic competence, there are compensatory strategies. The
frequency of the English tasks designed for discourse competence is 30, 38%, for
linguistic competence is 27, 62%, for actional competence is 28, 17%, for sociocultural
competence is 8, 83%, and for strategic competence is 4, 97%. The dominant types of task
for discourse competence are deixis and genre, for linguistic competence is phonology,
for actional competence is knowledge of language function, for sociocultural competence
is sociocultural contextual factor, and for strategic competence is compensatory strategy.

1. INTRODUCTION
Nowadays, English is an international language that must be mastered by people
in this world, include in Indonesia. In education, English learned by people since they
305 306 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 are in the elementary school until they are in the university. Learners need to develop
their skills, but sometimes they do not know how to do that. As a teacher, we should
help them. By using some various materials and methods, we may help them to
develop their language skills. According to Tomlinson (1998), there are many kinds of
learning materials such as dictionary, grammar book, workbook, photocopied
exercise, etc.
In addition, Al-Nwaiem (2012) states that the term ‘materials’ in an educational
context denotes any textual materials used by teachers and students, including
textbooks, worksheets, handouts, audio-visual aids and technological materials.
According to Hutchinson & Torres (1994: 315), the textbook is an almost universal
element of (English language) teaching. Moreover, Cunningsworth (1995) argues that
textbooks play several roles in English language teaching curriculum: they are reliable
resource for self-directed learning, a source of ideas and activities, and reference
material for learners. So, it can be concluded that textbook has important role in the
teaching learning process. It must have good quality to create good capability for the
students.
In the textbook, of course there must be many tasks and materials inside that
will help leaners develop their English skills. Lee (2000) in Ellis (2003: 4) states that a
task is (1) a classroom activity or exercise that has: (a) an objective obtainable only by
the interaction among participants, (b) a mechanism for structuring and sequencing
interaction, and (c) a focus on meaning exchange; (2) A language learning endeavor
that requires learners to comprehend, manipulate, and/or produce the target language
as they perform some set of work plan. So, task means an activity that can influence
students’ language ability and also their understanding. A good textbook serves good
task inside that will make the students easier to understand the materials through those
tasks.
For many years, Indonesia has implemented some curriculum. Now, we use
2013 curriculum in teaching learning process. It implements scientific approach which
has five steps in learning, namely observing, questioning, gathering information or
experimenting, associating or information processing, and communicating. The goal
of learning is to improve the students’ communicative competence. Based on the
discussion above, this research is conducted to know the quality of a textbook that is
used in junior high school. The research is conducted by analyzing the tasks in the
textbook based on theory of communicative competence by Celce-Murcia et al (1995).
The main competence of language learning based on Celce-Murcia et al (1995) is
communicative competence or discourse competence. It has supporting competence,
namely: discourse competence, linguistic competence, actional competence,
sociolinguistic competence, and strategic competence. The aim of this research is to
explain what English tasks are designed for communicative competence development
reflected in English textbook and what are the frequency and the dominant type of task
in each competence. The research is limited on the tasks analysis in a textbook entitled
When English Rings A Bell that is used for the students in seventh grade of junior high
school.
2. THEORETICAL REVIEW
This research uses some theories such as material development (notion and
principles of material development); component of task; communicative competence
from several perspectives; and the component of communicative competence by
Celce-4Murcia. However, the analysis of the task is focused on the theory of
communicative competence by Celce-Murcia et al (1995).
a. Discourse Competence
According to Murcia (1995: 13) discourse competence concerns the selection,
sequencing, and arrangement of words, structures, sentences and utterances to
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 307 b.

achieve a unified spoken or written text. There are many sub-areas that contribute
to discourse competence: cohesion, deixis, coherence, generic structure, and the
conversational structure inherent to turn-taking system in conversation. Cohesion
refers to the area of discourse competence most closely associated with linguistic
competence (Halliday & Hasan 1976, 1989). There are four ways by which
cohesion are created in English: by reference, ellipsis, conjunction, and lexical
organization (Halliday, 1985: 288). Deixis means ‘pointing’ via language. It links
the situational context with the discourse. Each text has its own distinctive
linguistic characteristic, and its own generic structure (Nunan, 1998: 43).
Conversational structure, which is inherent to the turn-taking system in oral
conversation (Sacks, Schegloff & Jefferson: 1974), is the final aspect of discourse
competence as we have outlined it. This area is highly relevant for communicative
competence and language teaching, since conversation is the most fundamental
means of conducting human affairs.
Linguistic Competence
Linguistic competence is the mastery of language code, the ability to use
grammar, syntax, and vocabulary this competence encompasses knowledge of roles
of phonology, morphology, lexical items, and syntax (Brown, 2000: 247).
Suggested components of linguistic competence are syntax, morphology, lexicon,
phonology, and orthography.
Actional Competence
Celce-Murcia et al (1995: 17) defined actional competence as the competence
to convey and understand communicative intent that is matching actional intent
with linguistic form based on the knowledge of an inventory of verbal schemata
that carry illocutionary force. It is closely related to interlanguage pragmatics
which has been defines by Blum & Kulka (1993) as “the study of nonnative
speakers use and acquisition of linguistic action patterns in a second language.
Suggested components of actional competence are knowledge of language
function includes interpersonal exchange, information, opinion, feeling, problem,
and future scenario; and the knowledge of speech act sets.
Sociocultural Competence
According to Celce-Murcia et al (1995: 23), sociocultural competence refers
to the speaker's knowledge of how to express messages appropriately within the
overall social and cultural context of communication, in accordance with the
pragmatic factors related to variation in language use. Celce-Murcia et al (1995:
23) have divided the relevant sociocultural competence into four main categories,
namely social contextual factors, stylistic appropriateness factors, cultural factors,
and non-verbal communicative factor.
Strategic Competence
It refers to knowledge of communication strategies and how to use them. It
highlights three functions of strategy use from three different perspectives (CelceMurcia et al, 1995: 26). The description of strategic competence consists of five
main parts: avoidance and reduction strategies, stalling or time-gaining strategies,
achievement or compensatory strategies, self-monitoring strategies, interactional
strategies.
3. RESEARCH METHOD
In this study, the researcher applies the qualitative research method because the
data of the research are in the form of document from a textbook that contain text or
discourse. Qualitative research is intended to understand the subject’s phenomena that
described in the form of words in a certain natural context and use natural method
(Moleong, 2007: 6). The approach that used in this research is content analysis. Weber
(1990) indicates that content analysis is a research method that uses a set of
308 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 procedures to make valid inferences from text. The object of this study is English
textbook entitled ‘When English Rings A Bell’ for Junior High School in the seventh
grade. The textbook was arranged by Ministry of Education and Culture and the
manuscript contributors are Yuli Rulani Khatimah, Asep Gunawan, and Siti
Wachidah.
The data in this research are tasks that are written in the textbook. Task is an
activity which required learners to arrive at an outcome from given information
through some process of thought, and which allowed teachers to control and regulate
that process (Prabhu (1987) in Nunan (1992: 4)). The textbook consists of eleven
chapters. Here, the researcher focuses on analyzing the tasks that written on each
chapter in the textbook. The researcher uses some data collection techniques:
observation and documentation. According to Nasution in Sugiyono (2007: 310),
observation is the basic of all knowledge. In this step, the researcher observes the
textbook that will be analyzed. The researcher observes the textbook from the cover
until the end of the textbook. Then, the researcher is going to the next step, it is
documentation. Cresswell (2012: 160) states that documentation analysis includes
printed materials, images, literary works, film, or other types of records. Then,
Sugiyono (2007: 329) states that document is any valuable notes of past events in the
form of written text, pictures, or monumental creatures.
The researcher uses some procedures in applying this method: read and
understand the entire tasks in the textbook for several times; mark the tasks that are
including in five components of communicative competence; type the tasks and code
the marked tasks by writing the task number, the chapter, and the page of the tasks;
account the tasks that develop the competences. In this research, the researcher needs
to verify the data in order to make the research to be valid and reliable. The researcher
collects the data and put them into each components of communicative competence.
Those are linguistic competence, sociocultural competence, strategic competence,
actional competence, and discourse competence. After all the data are collected and
put into each component, the researcher share and discuss it with some colleagues and
the expert to verify that the data are valid or not. In this research, the expert judgment
is really needed for the data validity.
In qualitative research, data analysis begins when the observations started. It is an
on-going activity throughout the whole investigation. This research applies the model
of data analysis based on Huberman and Miles (1994: 10). They mention three linked
processes of analysis, namely data reduction, data display, and data conclusion
drawing or verification. Data reduction is a form of analysis that sharpens, sort,
focuses, discards, and organizes data in such a way that ‘final’ conclusion can be
drawn and verified (Huberman and and Miles, 1994: 11). The coding system is based
on the chapter in the textbook, task number, and the page of the textbook. For example
the first task in the first chapter and in the first page, so the coding will be: T1/C1/P1.
In this process, the researcher classified the data into five components of
communicative competence. The display of the data is in the form of table. Each table
consists of the competence’s name and the amount of task for each component.
Verification is fleeting second thought crossing the analyst’s mind during writing,
with excursion back to the field notes (Miles and Huberman, 1994: 11). Here, the
tasks are analyzed with five components of communicative competence by CelceMurcia et.al (1995).
4. RESEARCH FINDING AND DISCUSSION
In the research finding, the researcher classify and analyse the tasks in the
textbook into each components of communicative competence, namely discourse
competence, linguistic competence, actional competence, sociocultural competence,
and strategic competence. Each competence has its components. So, the results of the
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 309 analysis are including in the components of each competence. In discourse
competence, there are cohesion, deixis, coherence, genre, and conversational structure.
There are also some types inside each component of discourse competence. For
example, there are reference, substitution ellipsis, conjunction, and lexical chains in
cohesion. In linguistic competence, there are components such as syntax, morphology,
lexicon, phonology, and orthography. There are some components in actional
competence like knowledge of language functions that has many terms inside, and
also knowledge of speech act sets. In sociocultural competence, there are sociocultural
contextual factors, stylistic appropriateness factors, cultural factors, and non-verbal
communicative factors inside the competence. Then, strategic competence consists of
five components, namely avoidance and reduction strategies, time-gaining strategies,
compensatory strategies, self-monitoring strategies, and interactional strategies.
In the research finding and discussion, the researcher gives the result of the
analysis and also the discussion. The result will be discussed as follows:
a. English tasks designed to develop the students’ linguistic competence
The first competence is linguistic competence. It consists of some components
like syntax, morphology, etc. Based on the analysis, the researcher found that the
amount of the task include in syntax component are 10 tasks. The highest amount
of the task include in syntax component are 3 tasks and it is found in chapter 5 of
the textbook. The chapter is studying about how many pets that the students have.
There is no task in the textbook that uses morphology in designing the task. In
lexicon component, there are 14 tasks and the highest amount of the task is in
chapter 7, it is 6 tasks.
Then, there are 24 tasks that are developed based on phonology in the
component of linguistic competence. There are tasks that used phonology in each
chapter in the textbook. The last component in linguistic competence is
orthography. There are 2 tasks that used this component. It is found in chapter 2.
So, it can be conclude that the tasks designed to develop students’ linguistic
competence are in the form of syntax, morphology, lexicon, lexicon, phonology
and orthography.
b. English tasks designed to develop the students’ sociocultural competence
In sociocultural competence, there are four components that have been
mentioned above. There are 10 tasks in the textbook that implement the component
of sociocultural competence, namely sociocultural contextual factors. The highest
amount of the task in this component is 3 and it is found in chapter 9 on the
textbook. In stylistic appropriateness factors, there are 3 tasks that implement this
component. It can be found only in the chapter 7. There are 2 tasks in the cultural
factors component, and it is found in chapter two and chapter 3. There is no task
that implements the component of non-verbal communicative factors.
c. English tasks designed to develop the students’ strategic competence
Strategic competence is the knowledge of communication strategies and how
to use them in communication. In the textbook, there are 9 tasks that implement the
strategic competence. They are found in the chapter six, chapter seven, chapter
eight, chapter nine, chapter ten, and chapter eleven. There are five components in
strategic competence but the researcher found the tasks that developed based on
this competence in the component of compensatory strategies.
d. English tasks designed to develop the students’ actional competence
There are two components of actional competence, namely the knowledge of
language functions and knowledge about speech act sets. In knowledge of language
functions, there are many components like interpersonal exchange, information,
feeling, and so on. In the textbook, the researcher found that there are task that
developed actional competence in each chapter. There is 1 task in chapter one, 3
tasks in chapter two, 4 tasks in chapter three, 5 tasks in chapter four, 6 tasks in
310 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 chapter five, 2 tasks in chapter six, 3 tasks in chapter seven, 7 tasks in chapter
eight, 5 tasks in chapter nine, 3 tasks in chapter ten, and 3 tasks in the last chapter.
All of tasks are developed based on the knowledge of language functions.
e. English tasks designed to develop the students’ discourse competence
Discourse competence is a competence related to the words or sentences in the
form of written or spoken. Discourse competence consists of some components like
cohesion, deixis, and so on. The textbook consists of 55 tasks that developed based
on discourse competence. There are 6 tasks for cohesion, 16 tasks for deixis, 1 task
for coherence, 16 tasks for genre, and 13 tasks for conversational structure.
f. The frequency of the English tasks designed for each competence
All the tasks have been analysed and the results also have been found. The
textbook consists of 181 tasks, and there are five components of communicative
competence in developing the tasks. Here, the researcher describes the frequencies
of the tasks in each competence. The frequency of English tasks designed for each
competence can be drawn with the formula as follow: the amount of tasks for each
competence divided by the amount of tasks in textbook times 100%.
First, the amounts of tasks in discourse competence are 55 tasks. The
frequency of this competence is 30, 38%. The second, there are 51 tasks of actional
competence in the textbook. The frequency is 28, 17%. Then, the tasks that
developed based on linguistic competence are 50 tasks and the frequency is 27,
62%. The fourth competence is sociocultural competence. There are 16 tasks of
this competence and the frequency I 8, 83%. The last competence is strategic
competence. In the textbook, the researcher found that there are 9 tasks developed
by strategic competence. The frequency is 4, 97%. From the results, the researcher
takes the conclusion that the dominant competence in the tasks in the textbook is
discourse competence with the frequency 30, 38%.
g. The dominant type of tasks for each competence
There are many types of task for each competence in communicative
competence. Each chapter consists of many types of tasks and many components of
communicative competence. There are five components of communicative
competence, namely discourse competence, linguistic competence, actional
competence, sociocultural competence, and strategic competence. In discourse
competence, there are two types or competence that dominant in the textbook.
Those are deixis and genre. Each component consists of 16 tasks. So, the dominant
types of task in discourse competence are deixis and genre.
There are 50 tasks in linguistic competence. The highest or the dominant type
of task in the textbook is phonology. Then, in actional competence, there are 51
tasks. The dominant of the task type that is found in the textbook is the knowledge
of language functions. There are many components in the knowledge of language
functions such as information, feeling, and so on. In this research, the dominant
type of task is interpersonal exchange include introduction and greeting.
There are four components in sociocultural competence such as cultural
factors and stylistic appropriateness factors. There are 16 tasks that developed
based on sociocultural competence. The dominant type of task is sociocultural
contextual factors with the amount of task 10. The last competence is strategic
competence. There are 9 tasks in the textbook that developed with strategic
competence. There is only one type of task that exists in the textbook, namely
compensatory strategies. The amount of the task is 9 tasks.
5. CONCLUSION
Based on the research findings and discussion, it can be concluded that the
textbook entitled When English Rings A Bell consists of 181 tasks and there are five
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 311 components of communicative competence that developed the tasks, namely discourse
competence, linguistic competence, actional competence, sociocultural competence,
and strategic competence. The English tasks that are designed to develop students’

A. INTRODUCTION
Crystal and Varley (1993) state that "communication is the sending and
receiving of messages. It means to any message, not just the highly structured
symbolic massages of language." Communication is a broader concept than
language, and language is included within what is meant by communication.
Communication is the common activities of human being. There are many
ways of communication, the first is verbal communication, the second is non-verbal
communication, then written communication, and the last is visual communication.
Communication purposes to send messages, information, share the opinions, and
keep relationship with the other. In communication, there are several ways to send
messages, such as face-to-face or using media. When people communicate, they are
using politeness, it used to respect the others, elders, and strangers. Though, people
are impolite when they communicate with the other. It has many reasons why people
are impolite when they communicates, such as he has different opinion with the
other and wants to defend his argument, his emotional of anger could not be hold
out.
313 314 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 The first way of communication is verbal communication. It is
communication within voices or spoke. Verbal communication refers to the send a
message using of sound and language. It works to express ideas, opinions, concepts,
etc. such face-to-face, telephone, radio or television and other media. While,
nonverbal communication involves those nonverbal stimuli in a communication
setting that are generated by both the speaker and his use of the environment and that
have potential message value for the speaker or listener. Basically it is sending and
receiving messages in a variety of ways without the use of verbal codes or words. It
is both intentional and unintentional.
The other categories of communication are written and visual
communication. Written communication is used in letters, e-mails, books,
magazines, and the internet or via other media. Written communication contains any
type of message that use of the written word. Nowadays, written communication
becomes popular, especially in social networks or sites. When someone shares his
opinion, express his feeling, etc with his own language, particularly with impolite
words, he will get impolite responds too and it often makes words war. And the last
is visual communication, communication using by graphs and charts, maps, logos
and other visualizations can communicate messages. This communication makes
people understand things better, the complex ideas can be presented clearly within a
short time period, and can be used to communicate to wide group with differing
background.
For all categories of communication, the most give a chance to interact
impolitely with the others are verbal communication and written communication.
However, I will be specified about written communication in online article that
written by the readers.
Although previous studies have examined impoliteness, most of them
focus on spoken impoliteness. The research of written impoliteness has been rarely
examined, and hence this study is to fill in this gap. Thus, this present study
examines written impoliteness in comments of online news.
Most of the native researchers have studied spoken impoliteness in variant
objects. Culpeper is using television documentary (2003), television quiz show
(2005) as his objects. Aydinoglu (2013) is using the speech of act plays by an
American woman playwright in Geralyn L. Harton. Then, Laitinen (2011) is using
television drama as her object. Wang is using female mandarin speakers as object of
her study (2008). Marlangeon studied about a typology of verbal impoliteness
behavior for the English and Spanish cultures (2012).
The research of written impoliteness especially in online magazines has
been rarely examined. The most studies of written impoliteness are using novels as
his/her objects. Methias (2010) using a novel of Dickens’s Great Expectation in his
research. Kuntsi (2012) also uses a novel “Dover Trial” in her research. In Indonesia,
research about impoliteness is still not widely. The example, Hartono (2014), he uses
comic strip as his object to analyze impoliteness strategies.
The last is Wibowo (Nd), he examines impoliteness used in online football
comments. The present research has same object with Wibowo, but different
participants. The previous research used Indonesian participants (English as second
language) and the present research used native participants (English as mother
tongue or first language).
This research which deals with impoliteness used in Dailymail’s comments
focuses on analyzing the impoliteness strategies are used by reader in Dailymail. The
aim of the research is to describe the most occur types impoliteness strategies and to
describe the conventional form of impoliteness used in Dailymail’s comments. This
study will be different with the studies before, the researcher focuses on written
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 315 impoliteness in CMC. The researcher hopes that this research will be useful as
additional references and enrichment in studying language used.
B. THEORETICAL REVIEW
The study of pragmatic is concerned with many principles to make sense of
what somebody hears and reads. Levinson (1983:21) explain that “Pragmatics is the
study of the relation between that language and context are basic to an account of
language understanding.” According to Peccei (1999:5), pragmatics concentrates on
those aspects of meaning that cannot be predicted by linguistics alone and takes into
account knowledge about the physical and social world.
Impoliteness has several synonyms in the English language and somehow
they all refer to the evaluation of negative behavior (Culpeper, 2010), because they
attack somebody’s identity or rights, and they cause specific emotional reactions
(e.g. hurt or anger). It has been directly associated with the intentions of the speaker
and perceptions of the hearer.
Impoliteness contains of five sub-units, there are bold on record
impoliteness, positive impoliteness, negative impoliteness, sarcasm or mock
politeness, and withhold politeness.
Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) is the process by which
people create, exchange, and perceive information using networked
telecommunications systems (or non-networked computers) that facilitate encoding,
transmitting, and decoding messages.
In this paper, researcher uses theory of impoliteness strategies by Culpeper
(1996). Impoliteness strategies refer to communicative strategies used to attack face,
and thereby create social disruption, based on Culpeper. He categorizes into five
strategies, as follows:
1. Bald on record impoliteness – the FTA is performed in a
direct, clear, unambiguous and concise way in
circumstances where face is not irrelevant or minimized.
2. Positive impoliteness – the use of strategies designed to
damage the addressee’s positive face wants. Examples:
a. Ignore, snub the other
b. Exclude the other from an activity
c. Disassociate from the other
d. Be disinterested, unconcerned, unsympathetic
e. Use inappropriate identity markers
f. Use obscure or secretive language
g. Seek disagreement
h. Make the other feel uncomfortable
i. Use taboo words
j. Call the other names
3. Negative impoliteness – the use of strategies designed to
damage the addressee’s negative face wants. Examples:
a. Frighten
b. Condescend, scorn or ridicule.
c. Invade the other's space
d. Explicitly associate the other with a negative aspect
e. Put the other's indebtedness on record
4. Sarcasm or mock politeness – the FTA is performed with
the use of politeness strategies that are obviously insincere,
and thus remain surface realizations
316 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 5. Withhold politeness - the absence of politeness work where
it would be expected
6. Off-record impoliteness - the FTA is performed by means of
an implicature but in such a way that one attributable
intention clearly out weighs any others.
(Culpeper 2005)
The researcher uses theory of conventional impoliteness strategies by
Culpeper (2010) to describe the conventional forms of impoliteness used in
Dailymail’s comments. This theory has six contents, there are:
1. Patronising behaviour (including condescending, belittling,
ridiculing and demeaning behaviours): Producing or
perceiving a display of power that infringes an understood
power hierarchy
2. Insults (including derogatory statements and implications):
Producing or perceiving a display of low values for some
target
3. Pointed criticism(including expressions of disapproval and
statements of fault, weakness or disadvantage): Producing
or perceive a display of low values for some target
4. Encroachment: Producing or perceiving a display of
infringement of personal space (literal or metaphorical)
5. Exclusion (including failure to include and disassociation):
Producing or perceiving a display of infringement of
inclusion
6. Failure to reciprocate: Producing or perceiving a display of
infringement of the reciprocity norm
(Culpeper 2010)
C. RESEARCH METHODS
The researcher is seeking to answer question about impoliteness strategies
and the conventional form of impoliteness. She is decided to use descriptive
qualitative. The techniques are analyzing the impoliteness strategies in Dailymail’s
comments by using Culpeper’s impoliteness strategies and analyzing the
conventional forms of impoliteness based in Culpeper (2010).
The sources of the data were taken from the online comments of Dailymail,
in the news, tv showbiz and sport’s columns. This research concerns on impoliteness
in comments that written by the readers in Dailymail published in August 2015 until
January 2016 and collected for 80 online comments. Then, the researcher is
classifying the data into impoliteness strategies by Culpeper and coding the data.

Keywords: Teachers’ Beliefs, English Teaching, Case Study, MTs.N Jeketro
1. INTRODUCTION
Teacher beliefs have been major study for several years. Scholars and
practitioners in education agree with the proposition that teacher belief is being
inseparable part in Education. Notion of teacher belief is still debatable. It can be traced
on the continuum of teacher’s belief terms. Kaymakamoglu (2009) classified a few terms
of teacher beliefs as follows: in 1986 Clark and Peterson called it as “teacher thinking”
and Pajares in 1992 stated as “teacher beliefs”, Borko and Putnam in 1995 used a term
“teacher knowledge” and “teacher craft knowledge” used by Cooper and Mcntyre in
1996, “teacher image” by Black (2002), and in 2003 Borg called as “teacher cognition”
and others. (Borg, 2001:186) said that teaching decision are made under the influence of
beliefs and teaching becomes a personal act because beliefs are “accepted” as true by the
individual.
Good and qualified teachers are essential for efficient functioning of educational
systems and for enhancing the quality of learning. It is relevant with Wibowo (2014):
320 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 321 A good teacher and actions to be taken on his part in the classroom play a vital role in
provoking effective and efficient learning on the part of the students. Teachers also have a
fundamental role in their learners’ academic achievement and their quality can highly
influence student outcomes.
Combs cited in Mulkey (2015) remarks that the most important single case of a
person’s success of failure educationally has to do with the question of what he believes
about himself. A belief is a set of big narration that human hold influencing the way
human behave in their life. In teaching and learning activity, teacher belief is an
influential factor to operate teaching and learning activity successfully. For the teachers
holding belief in teaching that learners will understand subject matters when they drill
lesson regularly through memorization, they will ask for the students to memorize during
teaching and learning activity. In the other hands, teachers holding belief in teaching that
learners will understand easily the subject if they exposure learning by doing. The
teachers will formulate the materials to engage the students actively in teaching and
learning activity.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
a. Definition of teacher’s belief
There are several experts define the meaning of teachers’ beliefs. (Green,1971:
104) argues that a teacher belief seems as a proposition that is accepted as true by the
individual holding the belief. While, Borg (2001) defines a teacher belief is a proposition
which may be consciously or unconsciously held, and something is accepted as true by
the individual, and therefore the beliefs inspire and guide the people‘s thought and
behavior. Calderhead (1995, cited in Ispri, 2015: 17) affirms that teachers' beliefs refer to
teachers' pedagogical beliefs or those beliefs of relevance to an individual teaching.
b. The importance of teacher’s belief
Teachers’ beliefs are integral discussion to make sure the quality of education.
Kocaman and Cansiz (2012: 799) stated that teachers’ beliefs are considered to greatly
influence teaching practice. Furthermore, Johnson (1994: 439) confirm that teachers’
beliefs can help teachers’ strategies for coping with challenges in their teaching
process and how they shape students’ learning environment. Liao (2007: 45) conveyed
that understanding the importance of teachers’ beliefs and practices are:
a. To inform researchers and teacher trainers about how teachers implement
their teaching in the classroom
b. To understand how teachers conceptualize their approach and work.
322 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 c. To understand teacher professional development
d. To look at the quality education served by the teachers
e. To find the factors that are responsible for shaping the beliefs
f.
To provide appropriate teacher education programs.
g. To assist teachers to make sense of the complex and multidimensional
nature of classroom life, to identify goals, and to shape their evolving
perceptions of themselves as teacher (Richard and Lockhart cited in
Fauziati, 2015: 55)
c. Aspects of teachers’ beliefs
Recent studies related to teachers’ beliefs have explored various aspects of beliefs
such as belief about teaching, belief about learning, belief about subject matter etc.
Reynold cited in Ispri (2015: 18) categorizes that there are three aspects of teachers'
beliefs, those are (1) learning and learner, (2) teachers' instructional roles and (3)
student activities. Basturkmen (2004: 215-217) added that there are five aspects of
teachers' beliefs: (1) practical (2) personal practical (3) subject matter content (4)
pedagogical content, and (5) curricular, while Richard and Rodgers add a couple of
belief aspects; those are belief about (1) English (2) learning (3) teaching (4) program
and curriculum (5) language teaching as profession.
d. The Sources of Teachers’ Beliefs
The sources of beliefs can be complex. It can be from culture, policy and the
experience the teachers go through. Muijs & Reynolds (2011, cited in Marati,
2014:17) stated that beliefs are formed by several different factors that can make them
difficult to change such as:
a) The experience of teachers; when they were a student in their school.
b) Teacher training; where they got some experiences that can shape their new
sets of beliefs and practices considering their teaching and thus can modified
their former beliefs.
c) The school culture where they work since they are involved as the integral part
who take the norms and values from the place, and
d) The experience of life and professional development that can overtime modify
their beliefs.
Similarly, Richard & Lockhart (1997:30) confirm that teachers' belief systems
are built up gradually over time and consist of both subjective and objective
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 323 dimensions. (Kindsvatter, Willen, and Ishler,1988 cited in Richard and Lockhart,1997)
assert that the source of teachers’ beliefs, they are
1. Their own experience as language learners.
2. Experience of what works best
3. Established practice
4. Personality factors
5. educationally based or research-based principles.
6. Principles derived from an approach or method.
3. METHODOLOGY
a. Type of research
The type of the research is qualitative with the case study approach. The
design type of case study employed is descriptive case study. It started with the
researcher presents a descriptive theory which establishes the framework for the
researcher to follow throughout the study and what is searched by this approach
is the formation and identification of a clear theoretical orientation before stating
research questions. The researcher must also determine before beginning the
research exactly what the unit of analysis in the study will be.
b. Problem statements
1. What are teachers’ beliefs about English teaching at MTs N Jeketro?
2. Is there any discrepancy between teachers’ beliefs and their practices?

experienced teacher with 11 teaching year experience, T3 is 19 teaching year
experience and going to be 20 years by the beginning of March and the last, T4
has master degree and 11 year experience.
d. Technique of collecting data
This study uses interview, classroom observation and document analysis
to collect the data. The interview is semi-structured interview with the guidelines
324 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 adopted from Richard and Rodger. The classroom observation is narrative form
and document analysis is the material, students’ note and workbook used by the
four English teachers.
e. Data analysis
Data analysis is used in this study is Miles and Hubberman 1994 Model
which is begun with a series steps; (1) data reduction, (2) data display then (3)

4. FINDINGS
The findings of teachers’ beliefs and practices of English teaching at MTs.N
Jeketro can be categorized into some categories: (1) the important of English (2)
functional approach (3) principles (4) workbook oriented (5) methods (6) learning
activities (7) teachers’ roles (8) learners’ roles and from those beliefs demonstrated by
T1, T2, T3 and T4 can be concluded that there are no discrepancies between teachers’
beliefs and their practices.
a. Implementation of T1’s beliefs
T1 is a novice teacher. T1 is discipline and on time to teach in the class. The
approach used by T1 is functional approach, T1 believed that the language is supposed to
be taught based on the function. In the observations the researcher found that T1’s beliefs
are consistent with the practices. T1 taught about the language function in the class, such
as expression of happiness, expression of sympathy, recount text and others. T1 had
beliefs that the teaching and learning principles T1 holds is fun and interactive. The
researcher often sees how close T1 with the students, T1 greets on the way classroom to
other classes, then coming to the class and drew students’ attention by asking the activity
before the students come to the class while calling the students’ names one by one, one of
the eighth graders. T1 was not only friendly teacher but also kind. T1 always uses own
material for the students and it looks reasonable than adopting the textbook or workbook
totally. In the beginning, T1 asked for the students to see the previous material discussed
then T1 posed a couple of question to the students. Then, T1 continued the lesson, T1
explained in short the lesson of the day and T1 instructed the students to teach the
seatmates loudly each other, a few minutes later, T1 distributed the worksheet and a
summary of the lesson to the students. During the lesson, T1 was active to check the
students’ works, T1 walked around while asking the reasons why the students picked up
the answers. S1 said that T1 always asked for the students to do exercises such as fill in
blank, match word and others. Then, a couple of minutes later, T1 offered the students to
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 325 write their work in white board, T1 will give additional score for the students who would
like to answer the question in white board. The rest of teaching and learning, T1 always
reminds the students to brush up the material because T1 will ask questions before
continuing the lesson. T1’s beliefs implemented in the classroom are functional approach,
fun and interactive learning principle, authentic material, drill method, practice activity, a
facilitator role and students as a partner; T2’s beliefs illustrated in the classroom are
functional approach, cooperative principle, workbook as primary source, discussion
method, guided-discovery learning, a facilitator role, students as a receptacle; T3’s beliefs
are implemented in the classroom are functional approach, cooperative principle,
workbook as primary source, reading method, comprehension activity, teacher as a
facilitator, students’ as a raw material and T4 reflected the beliefs: functional approach,
fun and interactive, workbook as primary source, simulation method, application activity,
teacher as a facilitator and students as an active participant, the factors that are
responsible for shaping those beliefs are experience as language learners, training or
seminar that teachers participated, experience works best and institution policy.
b. Implementation of T2’s beliefs
T2 has adequately good teacher. T2 is warm for their students. In the observations
are done by the researcher T2’s beliefs and practices are congruence. The implementation
of the functional approach can be seen from the teaching performance T2 shows in the
class, T2 delivers materials related to the expression in English, recount text, descriptive
text and others. In the beginning of the lesson, T2 always greet in a soft voice while
smiling to the students, then a few minutes later, T2 divides the students into some groups
and before T2 tells the material is going to talk about T2 gives like ice breaker, T2
provides a piece of paper to fill in the precise word or sentence in English for the group
then they work in group and for the last group that submit the work, the group have to
sing a song that provided by T2 in the projector screen. T2 sets passwords in the class to
draw students’ attention for instance when T2 says “Class?” and the students should reply
“Hi”, and when T2 says “class, class?” the students should reply “yes, sir or yes miss”.
Then, T2 checks sure the students’ readiness by saying “are you ready to study class?”.
after that, T2 asks for the students to open the workbook entitled Medali (Media Belajar
Berprestasi, published by Penerbit dan Percetakan Indonesia Jaya, Surakarta, 2015). The
students are excited with the lesson “family”, they work in group and talk each other, and
T2 checks each group then 15 minutes later, the captain of the group come to the front to
show the work they have worked in the group. Afterwards, T2 gives a group task that
must be collected in the following meeting. T2 has consistent beliefs and the practices
326 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 such as functional approach, cooperative principle, discussion method, application
activity, teacher’s role as a facilitator, learners’ role as a receptacle.
c. Implementation of T3’s beliefs
The next is the teachers’ beliefs of T1 and the implementation of the beliefs in the
classroom. T3 has belief that teaching English shouldn’t concentrate on the grammatical
orientation but it must be based on the function. T3 explained that human is a language
user who uses it when required and it is supposed to teach based on the function of
language such as genres based, short functional text, and daily expressions. T3 assumed
that cooperative learning is one of effective ways to do in the classroom, and the students
can learn from other students in a group. Student 3 (S3) conveyed that:
T3 sering membagi siswa kedalam beberapa kelompok terus mendiskusikan
bacaan dalam kelompok, nanti sekitar 10 atau lima belas menit tergantung
banyak sedikitnya bacaan yang diberikan kemudian T3 mengoreksi hasil kerja
tiap-tiap kelompok
(S3, Interview, R6, 9E, November 14th, 2015)
T3 claims that the focus is reading because the students will not only get information
about what they have read but also it will increase their understanding of a text. S3
affirms that T3 gives various of text types such as description of pet, recount text “on
vacation”, story of Malin Kundang and others.
Bacaan yang di berikan oleh T3 banyak mas, misal tentang hewan kesayangan,
cerita liburan, dongeng Malin Kundang, dan Kangguru
(S3, Interview, R7, 9E, November 14th, 2015)
T3 uses a workbook entitled “Incer” (Indonesia Cerdas, published by PT. JePe
Press Media Utama, 2015, Surabaya) as the primary source, to make more interesting T3
copy one of the worksheet in workbook then distributed to each group, and when T3 has
bestowed the reading text, T3 immediately asks for the students to understand of the topic
of the text, the main idea and the information the students gain from the text. T3 has
similar to other teachers. T3 maintains the students’ focus by looking into every group
while posing several questions about how the students select the answers. Then, the
groups submit the work, and if there still left time, T3 sometimes makes a quiz related to
the lesson, T3 will give additional scores for all the team members who can submit earlier
is going to give 20 scores for the total of the daily assessment, the second team will get 15
scores, the third will get 10 scores, then the next team will get 5 scores and for the last
team need to sing any songs in English, the team know. All the students look motivated
and happy for the quiz. T3 controls all the students’ activities and if the students do not
follow the direction T3 will give punishment such as cleaning the class, memorizing the
vocabulary in front of the class, and rewrite the lesson of the day multiples into 3 times.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 327 d. Implementation of T4’s beliefs
The last is teacher’s beliefs of T4 and the implementation T4 demonstrated in the
classroom. T4 believes that functional approach is a precise approach to do in the class.
T4 assumed that functional approach itself sees a language is a vehicle to express the
meaning and it will be great if the teaching is underlain on the useful expressions such as
offering expression, greeting expression or in the the text context the teaching is delivered
in the genre of English text. In the class, T4 speaks English as much as possible to trigger
the students’ motivation and interest that English is a matter of habit and brave to practice
it. T4 is personally kind and patient with the students. In the beginning T4 comes into the
class, T4 always greets and smile to the students warmly. The principles of teaching T4
showed in the class is fun and interactive learning. T4 opens the class by showing printed
numbers in a rectangle card size and asking for students to answer in English. S4
explained that T4 always ask questions about thing around the class, guessing words,
favorite food and the students must answer in English. The material used by T4 is same
workbook that T2 uses in the class. then the Method implemented is consistent that T4
holds the belief that role-playing is proper method to use, T4 suggests the students to do
role-playing in the class related to the current lesson. Before doing role-playing the
students need to set the role will be taken in the text and when the students do not
understand the roles T4 comes closer to guide and direct the students to take a role as the
students’ interest. The core unit of the learning activity is application activity where T4
concerns on the students’ performance in the class, in narrative lesson in the third
observation T4 asks for the students to do role-play. The students can choose any topic
related to narrative stories. T4 provides twenty minutes to prepare for each group then the
group will present in the class. The role that T4 demonstrates in the class is congruent
with T4’s belief namely as a participant or facilitator. During the teaching and learning,
T4 performs as a facilitator. T4 explains as required and assist the students to do learning.
Every meeting T4 demands the students to participate actively in teaching and learning,
T4 will asks for the students to perform in front of class or answer the task given by T4 in
the white board.
e. The factors shape teachers’ beliefs
Based on the finding of the research, there are four factors that shape the
teachers’ beliefs and practices at MTs N Jeketero. Those are teaching experience
works best, training, policy and education.
1. Experience as language learner
328 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Not all English teachers have a dream to be English teachers. One of the
teachers (T3), in the beginning T3 had a dream to be an engineer of agriculture
because T3 did not pass the entrance examination, finally T3 selected to be an
English teacher as T3’s interest. T1, T2 and T4 agreed that that education has huge
impact to build the beliefs. the education process from the first the teachers studied
English to the last education they gain strongly shape their beliefs. Then, T1
insisted that:
Proses pendidikan yang saya alami ketika saya pertama kali belajar bahasa
inggris sampai setelah saya lulus dari pendidikan bahasa Inggris ikut berperan
dalam pembentukan keyakinan saya dalam menyelenggarakan kegiatan belajar
mengajar
(T1, Interview,2, R14, October 16th, 2016)
From the discussion above, it can be summed up that education during the
study in school as well as in university play important role in shaping teachers’
beliefs and how the beliefs drive them to follow and implement in the practice.
2. Training
Most teacher believe that training has big impact to the teacher beliefs and
practice. T1, T2, T3 and T4 are aware that training time by time can modify the
beliefs they have hold. T1 noted that
Pelatihan-pelatihan yang saya ikuti berpengaruh terhadap beliefs yang saya
yakini dan itu juga menguatkan praktik pengajaran selama di kelas
(T2, Interview,2, R 14, October 15th, 2015)
Form the information above, it can be concluded that the trainings they
participate assist them to enrich the teaching foundation and regularly shape their
beliefs. when they conduct teaching, they feel that there are assumptions underlie
before selecting a precise approach, method, roles in the teaching and learning as
well as leaning activity.
3. Personality
T3 argued that personality drives the teacher to do what the inside belief tells
and indirectly it is reflected in the practice. Although, personality factor has
emerged as dominant belief, it cannot be ignored that personality factor is caused
by the accumulation of teaching experience, training and books as well as article
publication to shape the belief.
Kalau saya pribadi dari dorongan personal saya, itu mungkin juga hasil dari
akumulasi pengalaman saya saat mengajar di kelas, pelatihan-pelatihan,
buku-buku atau artikel yang saya baca akhirnya muncul suatu dorongan dan
gagasan bagaimana saya mengajar di kelas mas
(T3, Interview,2, R14, November 14th, 2015)
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 329 4. Teaching experience works best
All teachers believed that the most dominant factors that influence teachers’
beliefs are teaching experience works best. They affirmed that automatically what
they have undergone cause the implementation in the classroom. T4 added
Apa yang kita alami dikelas secara tidak langsung mempengaruhi praktik
pengajaran kita selanjutnya dan itu mengakar kuat jika kejadian itu kita alami
berulang kali
(T4, Interview, R14, November 30th, 2015)
5. CONCLUSION
From this study, it can be inferred that teachers’ beliefs have huge impact to
determine and guide the teachers’ beliefs toward their practices in line. The reflection of
beliefs can be translated into different implementation in the classroom based on the
context the teachers confront in their real class. The context can be the age of students,
teaching duration, and students’ characteristic. The factors dominate the teachers’ beliefs
and practices experience as language learners, training or seminar that teachers
participated, experience works best and institution policy.

Keywords: Criticism; EFL learners; Perception; Impoliteness
A. INTRODUCTION
Politeness and impoliteness are the examples of the pragmatics phenomena,
impoliteness as the focus of this study, the concept of impoliteness is a universal
phenomenon which occurs among all cultures but its manifestation may vary from culture
to culture. Even within the same culture, the manifestation of impoliteness may differ
from social context to social context. This is because no linguistic utterance is potentially
impolite till judged as such or otherwise by a particular society. However, impoliteness
research has become popular only recently (cf. Bousfield, 2008; Culpeper; 2009; Saidi,
2015; Tajeddin et al., 2014; Culpeper et al., 2010) researchers have been working on
describing how this phenomenon is manifested in different languages. Culpeper (1996:
355) argues that impoliteness is very much the parasite of politeness. He makes a
distinction between ‘inherent impoliteness’ and ‘mock impoliteness’. In some instances
the conjunction of act and context does give rise to impoliteness that may be said to be
inherent, since it cannot be completely mitigated by any surface realisation of politeness.
The notion of inherent impoliteness irrespective of contexts only holds for a minority of
acts. Mock impoliteness, or banter, is impoliteness that remains on the surface, since it is
understood that it is not intended to cause offence.
According to Culpeper (2009: 18) current definitions of impoliteness deploy the
following concepts: face, social norms and rights, intention and emotion. They generally
lean either towards the notion of face or the notion of social norms. With regard to face,
Quality face turned out to be overwhelmingly the most important type of face relating to
impoliteness. Social norms as authoritative standards of behaviour are the basis of
sociality rights. He argued that that these rights relate to morality, and that this is an
important feature of impoliteness. Intentionality is criterial, however people take offence
even if they know that the behaviour that caused it was not fully intentional. Emotions are
key to impoliteness. Van Dijk in Culpeper (2009: 19) claims that evaluative beliefs,
which constitute attitude schemata, may be associated with emotive aspects, such as like
and dislike.
332 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 333 Kecskes (2015: 43) argues that impoliteness may work differently in intercultural
interaction than in L1 communication. Most of the studies have taken a cross-cultural
approach (cf. Kecskes, 2015; Tajeddin et al, 2014; Chang, 2008; Culpeper et al, 2010)
most of them argued that impoliteness may work differently in inter-cultural interaction
than in L1 communication. Focussing on proposional meanings interlocutors may
sometime be unware of impolieness because it is conveyed implicity or through
paralinguistics means that fuction differently for speakers with different L1 backgrounds.
It means that there still a limited number of researcher have looked into the possible
differences in the realization and performance of the impoliteness by EFL learners in L1
communication. Bearing in this mind the writer tries to cast further light on Indonesian
EFL learners’ perception of impoliteness. Against this backdrop, this study focused on
Indonesian EFL learners’ perception of impoliteness realized in criticism production.
Understanding these differences will shed light on variation in the perception of
impoliteness in speech act production, particularly criticism performance. The speech act
selected to explore impoliteness in this study was criticism. First of all, criticism is among
the speech acts which are most likely to be considered as impolite when the speaker does
not use sufficient criticism strategies to produce it. The writer takes the relevant previous
study to prove the originally of this research. Among those studies are:
Tajeddin et al. (2014) investigated native English speakers’ and English as a
foreign language (EFL) learners’ perception of (im)politeness. The objective of this study
was to examine variations in native English speakers’ and EFL learners’ perceptions of
(im)politeness embedded in apology production. The study aimed to investigate what
criteria they would take into consideration while evaluating the degree of (im)politeness
of apology utterances. Content analysis of respondents’ comments indicated that both
groups mentioned similar (im)politeness criteria. However, the analysis of frequency
counts displayed significant differences between the two groups in their degree of
preference for each (im)politeness criterion.
Saidy (2015) conducted a research study about Iranian EFL learners’ perceptions
of (im)politeness of request speech act in request situation that lacked any politeness
marker across two genders. The results indicated that both males and females had similar
perceptions regarding the (im)politeness of the requests while their responses showed
some variation. The possible underlying reasons behind this variation across genders
were discussed and some suggestions for further research were presented. Generally
speaking, though, one might conclude that gender would not influence the addressee’s
perception of the degree of politeness of the request speech act in both formal and
informal settings.
Laitinen (2011) did a research about the phenomenon of impoliteness by
investigating a famous American hospital series House M.D., which has been aired in the
United States since 2004, and in Finland since 2006. The show is known especially for its
main character breaking the norms of communication, not just in a regular social
interaction but in doctor – patient interaction, too. Thus the main focus of the thesis is on
the impoliteness strategies that the main character of the series. the main focus of the
thesis is on the impoliteness strategies that the main character of the series, Dr. Gregory
House, uses. The basis of the analysis is on Jonathan Culpeper's impoliteness strategies
(1996) but also Peter A. Andersen's categories of nonverbal communication (1999) are
used when the issue of nonverbal impoliteness is considered. The secondary focus is on
the reactions of Dr. House's patients after he has been impolite towards them. For this I
used Derek Bousfield’s (2007) theory on the anatomy of impoliteness, and more
particularly his chart of how impoliteness can be responded to. Considering the first
research question about which impoliteness strategies House uses in the series, it was
334 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 found out that all the impoliteness strategies listed by Culpeper (1996) were used.
However, all of Andersen’s categories of nonverbal communication were not present: two
of them, proxemics and haptics (Andersen, 1999), were not involved in any of House’s
face attacks. The other research question examined the reactions and responses of the
patients. The analysis revealed that many of the patients did not understand House’s face
attack. Although conversations are written beforehand instead of being spontaneous there
may be a few reasons why the patients are made to react as they do.
Chang (2008) explored the variables in perceptions of (im)politeness in an
intercultural apology, focusing on discussion of the cultural and gender differences.
Through the study’s instrument, a conversation between an Australian and a Taiwanese
Chinese speaker, the study suggests that there are indeed some differences in perceptions
of (im)politeness across different cultural groups, since the participants from these two
backgrounds tend to use distinctive strategies to make apologies. The study’s findings
indicate that the cultural factor is more influential in the perceptions of (im) politeness
than the gender factor.
In this study, there is one main problem regarding perception of impoliteness by
Indonesian EFL learners as follows:
a. What types do Indonesian EFL learners to judge impoliteness in criticism production?
B. UNDERLYING THEORY
In this chapter the writer uses some theoretical review that will be use to analyze
the data of this study. It deals with some theories such as impoliteness, speech acts, EFL
learners, speech acts of criticism.
1. Impoliteness
Impoliteness research has become popular only recently (cf. Bousfield, 2008;
Culpeper; 2009; Saidi, 2015; Tajeddin et al., 2014; Culpeper et al., 2010). According to
Bousfield (2008: 72), impoliteness is the broad opposite of politeness, in that, rather than
seeking to mitigate face-threatening acts (FTAs), impoliteness constitutes the
communication of intentionally gratuitous and conflictive verbal face-threatening acts
(FTAs) which are purposefully delivered:
1. Unmitigated, in contexts where mitigation is required, and/or,
2. With deliberate aggression, that is, with the face threat exacerbated, ‘boosted’,
or maximised in some way to heighten the face damage inflicted. Furthermore, for
impoliteness to be considered successful impoliteness, the intention of the speaker (or
‘author’) to ‘offend’ (threaten/damage face) must be understood by those in a receiver
role. With the above definition then, it means that impoliteness does not exist where one,
but not both of the participants (in two-party interaction) intends / perceives face-threat.
Culpeper (1996: 355) investigated impoliteness the use of strategies that are are
designed to have the opposite effect – that disruption. These strategies are oriented
towards attacking face an emotionally sensitive concept of the self (Goffman,1967;
Brown and Levinson, 1987). On the other hand, Watss (2003: 18) also suggested that
impoliteness is clearly a salient form of social behaviour in the sense that it appears to go
against the canons of acceptable, appropriate behaviour operative for the ongoing social
interaction. In other words, lack of politeness is associated with intimacy, and so being
superficially impolite can promote intimacy. Clearly, this only works in contexts in which
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 335 the impoliteness is understood to be untrue. Leech, however, neglects to specify what
these contexts might be.
a. Bald--on--record impoliteness: the FTA is performed in a direct, clear, unambiguous
and concise way in circumstances where face is not irrelevant or minimized.
b. Positive impoliteness: the use of strategies designed to damage the addressee’s
positive face wants, e.g. Ignore, snub the other -- fail to acknowledge the other's
presence. Exclude the other from an activity. Disassociate from the other -- for
example, deny association or common ground with the other; avoid sitting together.
Be disinterested, unconcerned, unsympathetic. Use inappropriate identity markers -for example, use title and surname when a close relationship pertains, or a nickname
when a distant relationship pertains. Use obscure or secretive language -- for example,
mystify the other with jargon, or use a code known to others in the group, but not the
target. Seek disagreement -- select a sensitive topic. Make the other feel
uncomfortable -- for example, do not avoid silence, joke, or use small talk. Use taboo
words -- swear, or use abusive or profane language. Call the other names -- use
derogatory nominations.
c. Negative impoliteness: the use of strategies designed to damage the addressee’s
negative face wants, e.g. Frighten -- instill a belief that action detrimental to the other
will occur. Condescend, scorn or ridicule -- emphasize your relative power. Be
contemptuous. Do not treat the other seriously. Belittle the other (e.g. use
diminutives). Invade the other's space -- literally (e.g. position yourself closer to the
other than the relationship permits) or metaphorically (e.g. ask for or speak about
information which is too intimate given the relationship). Explicitly associate the other
with a negative aspect -- personalize, use the pronouns 'I' and 'you'. Put the other's
indebtedness on record. Violate the structure of conversation – interrupt.
d. Off--record impoliteness: the FTA is performed by means of an implicature but in
such a way that one attributable intention clearly outweighs any others.
e. Withhold politeness: the absence of politeness work where it would be expected. For
example, failing to thank somebody for a present may be taken as deliberate
impoliteness.
2. Speech Acts
People always communicate each other. They exactly have certain intention for
doing the communication. When they produce utterances, they have many purposes such
as making statement, describing event, and stating of affair etc. The utterances are also
used to do something such as to make question, order, request, forbid and many more.
Those kinds of action are called speech act which is concerned with utterances.
According to Searle, speech acts are the basic or minimal units of linguistic
communication (1996). In keeping with the speech act theory, the purpose of our
communication is to deliver our message precisely in relation to the production of speech
act.
People do not only produce utterances containing grammatical structures and
words, they perform actions via those utterances. Actions performed via utterances are
generally called speech act. (Yule, 1996) According to J.L Austin, speech act treats an
utterance as an act performed by a speaker in a context with respect to addresses.
336 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 3. Speech Acts of Criticism
According to Michel and Fursland (2008) all of us have been criticised at some
point in our lives. Being able to accept criticism assertively is one of the most important
tasks we face on our journey to maturity. The word criticism comes from an Ancient
Greek word describing a person who offers reasoned judgement or analysis, value
judgement, interpretation or observation. So to accept criticism maturely we need to be
able to accept feedback in the form of analysis, observation or interpretation from other
people about our behaviour.
In the present study, criticizing refers to an illocutionary act whose illocutionary
point is to give negative evaluation on the hearer’s (H) actions, choice, words, and
products for which he or she may be held responsible. This act is performed in hope of
influencing H’s future actions for the better for his or her own benefit as viewed by the
speaker (S), or to communicate S’s dissatisfaction/ discontent with or dislike regarding
what H has done but without implying that what H has done has undesirable
consequences for S (adapted from Wierzbicka, 1987). Based on the above definition of
the criticizing speech act, the speech act of responding to criticism in this present study is
defined as a verbalized reaction to a given criticism. (Nguyen, 2005: 7)
The following preconditions need to be satisfied in order for the speech act of
criticizing to take place:
a. The act performed or the choice made by H is considered inappropriate according to a
set of evaluative criteria that S holds or a number of values and norms that S assumes
to be shared between himself or herself and H.
b. S holds that this inappropriate action or choice might bring unfavorable consequences
to H or to the general public rather than to S himself or herself.
c. S feels dissatisfied with H’s inappropriate action or choice and feels an urge to make
his or her opinion known verbally.
d. S thinks that his or her criticism will potentially lead to a change in H’s future action
or behavior and believes that H would not otherwise change or offer a remedy for the
situation without his or her criticism.
(Adapted from Wierzbicka’s discussion of criticisms, 1987 and Olshtain and
Weinbach’s discussion of complaints, 1993)
4. Taxonomy of Criticism
According to Nguyen (2005) the taxonomy of criticisms used in the present study,
illustrated with samples from the current data. The taxonomy was developed base on her
study of L2 New Zealand English criticisms and modified to fit the fresh data of the
current study. It should be noted that a criticism may be made up of a number of formulae
(CF). For example, the following criticism consists of three formulae (two statements of
problem [that the writer had two conclusions and there were structural problems] and a
suggestion [that it might be better if the writer ordered the two conclusions in a certain
way]): ‘‘umm I’ve just got through this ah and then it’s once again in the end of the
structure I thought you had two conclusions as well (.) so (.2) but they’re both good (.) so
I thought maybe if that one came after that one cause that was more of a conclusion than
that one perhaps that would be better so they were more like the structural problem’’

C. Research Method
In this study the writer will use descriptive qualitative research because the writer
wants to describe the perception of impoliteness by Indonesian EFL learners in criticism
production, such as students and teachers. The quality method is used because the writer
concerns with the perception of impoliteness in criticism production. Therefore, the type
of this study can be classified as qualitative study which gives a description for the
impoliteness by Indonesian EFL learners. The data in this research taken from EFL
learners’ perception of impoliteness in criticism production in movies. In collecting the
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 341 data the writer used questionaire as an instrument to collect the data. The writer
uses DCT (Discourse Completion Tasks), DCT’ are short written descriptions of
scenarios, followed by a short dialogue one participant in the scenarios. In this
step, the writer analyzes the data based on the theory of Nguyen (2005: 7).
D. Finding and Discussion
It presents the answer of problem statement that contains some explanation which is

Abstract
This study is aimed to show the conditions of women emancipation in Morocco,
especially in the harem life by using feminist approach. It is done by establishing
two objectives: the first is analyzing the novel based on its structural elements and
the second is analyzing the reflection of women emancipation by using feminist
approach. The result of the analysis will answer the problem statement. This
research is qualitative research. Type of data of the study is text taken from two
data sources: primary and secondary. The primary data source is the Dream of
Trespass novel written by Fatima Mernisssi in 1994. While the secondary data
sources are other materials taken from books, journals, and internet related to the
study. Both data are collected through library research and analyzed by
descriptive analysis. The result of the study shows the following conclusions.
Firstly, based on the structural analysis, it is indicated that each of narrative
elements of the novel is related one and each other. Secondly, the novel illustrates
that women emancipation in the harem is mostly ignored. The women live with
many rules and restrictions from the men in many aspects of life in the harem.
Keywords: feminist, equality, existence, woman emancipation

A. INTRODUCTION
Women emancipation is the achievement of complete economic, social,
political and religious equality of women with men, an aspiration that the
realization in the course of the twentieth century had been gradual, varied, and
incomplete. Women emancipation is the reflection of human right, especially
women’s right. It is the equal opportunity for women in social, economic,
education, politic, and culture. People in the world are created to live together.
They consist of man and woman. But in real life, a woman is usually in low
position and man in high position from time to time. Man is assumed that he is
strong, might and powerful so he can do anything for woman. This is not fair
because women have the same right for life as human being. Without men,
women can struggle for life by themselves in several ways and every condition.
Related with patriarchal culture, there are many problems arising because of
men dominated to the women such as sexual violence, bad treatment to woman,
unequal right in education etc. Thus, Indonesia has R.A. Kartini fighting for
equality between men and women in society. During imperialisms come to
Indonesia, women have no right in education, they just stay at home and do what
their husband command. So because of Kartini’s struggle, slow but sure women
have equal existence with men.
From the phenomena of social life in this society, there is one of the life
problems that become the source of literary works which is the position of women
in society, since there are still many questions arising because of the unfair
treatment toward women. One of the novels that have different opinion about
women is Dream of trespass by Fatima Mernissi.
One of the problems which are often faced by every human being especially
women is how to stand up their rights and not allow their male dominated society
to define what it means to be women. Women themselves must show their
capability, to prove who they are and what role they will play in society. Most
importantly, they must reject the patriarchal assumption that women are inferior to
men. Therefore according to Anderson in Mandell (1995: 5) states that every
person has equal opportunities and civil rights and they should be allowed to
exercise freedom of choice without interfere of public opinion or law.
With regard to the phenomenon above, there are other related previous studies
which cover the feminism in novel by Fatima Mernissi’s Dream of Trespass,
Tales of a Harem Girlhood (1994): A Feminist Approach. First Najikhatul Laili
(2011) focuses her study on revealing how is the struggle of the women in harem
to cope their misery in there. The differences this study with the second study is in
the problem statement and the perspective. The previous study explains how the
struggle of the women in harem to cope the miseries while in this study depicts
346 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 how the condition of women emancipation in harem is. Although both use a
feminist approach but the perspective or the focus of the each study is different.
Second, Wahyu Utomo (2011) he is interested in Gender Inequality in Fatima
Mernissi’s Novel Dream of Trespass. This study focuses to show the gender
inequality in the harem life reflected in Dream of Trespass by using socialist
feminism approach. This study defines that gender inequality is existed in the
harem life. The differences the third study with this study is in the focus of the
study. The third study focuses on the gender inequality and this study is focuses
on the reflection of women emancipation in harem life reflected in the Dream of
Trespass. So this study is not only describes about the women inequality but also
both equality and inequality of the emancipation of women in harem reflected in
the Fatima Mernissi’s Dream of Trespass.
This study is different from those previous studies above, because it is
establishing How is the reflection of women emancipation reflected in Fatima
Mernissi’s Dream of Trespass. So, from the statement, this study is aimed to
describe the reflection of woman emancipation in Fatima Mernissi’s Dream of
Trespass by using feminist approach.
B. METHOD
The type of this research is descriptive qualitative. Descriptive qualitative is a
type of research which result the descriptive data in the form of written or oral
words from the observed object. The method of data collection in this study is
documentation. The writer reads the primary data repeatedly to reach more
understanding. Next, the writer takes, compares, and classifies the supporting data
into some categories. The technique of data analysis in this study is descriptive,
researcher uses feminist approach and draws conclusion.
C. FINDING AND DISCUSSION
The Findings of this study are as follow:
1) Social Aspects
The lives of women in harem which is depicted in Dream of Trespass novel is
always related with the limitation. From the construction of harem building,
peoples maybe can understand that harem is a place which is not free to access to
go to the outside and inside especially for the women.
Our harem in Fez was surrounded by high walls and,the exception of the
little chunk of the sky that you could see from the courtyard below, nature
didn’t exist. (DoT, 1994:56)
2) Economic Aspect
In the other pages, the unequal right of the women about the economic
aspects toward the men is displayed. The women concern about the salary or the
money which is earned for their work. For example:
she said, both men and women worked from dawn until very late at night.
But men made money and women did not. And when women worked
hard, and was not making money, she was stuck in a harem, even though
she could not see its walls. (DoT, 1994: 63)
The quotation above strengthens the concern of the women about the
differentiation of the result for their work beside the men. Although both of the
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 347 men and the women are working, but only the men earn money and the women do
not.
3) Political Aspect
The condition of the political aspect in Morocco which is displayed from the
novel is in colonialization period. Morocco is being colonialized by French and
Spain.
They put soldiers near ‘Arbaoua and said from now on, to go north, you
needed a pass because you were crossing Spanish Morocco. To go south,
you needed another pass, because you were crossing into French Morocco
(DoT, 1994: 3)
4) Educational Aspect
The education of the women which is reflected in the novel is forbidden.
She had asked for to go to literacy classes – a few schools in our own
neighborhood were offering them – but her demand had been turned
down by the family council. (DoT, 1994: 201)
The quotation shows the forbidden for the women to get education. When
Fatima Mernissi’s mother asks permission to join into the literary school, her
permission is rejected by the family. It depicts that the education for women is
forbidden.
D. CONCLUSION
Based on the feminist analysis, which takes an eye about the injustice,
inequalities, and the movements of women, it can be seen that the inequalities
exists in this novel. The researcher has analyzed some women aspects of life.
Those are social aspect, economic aspect, political aspect and education aspect.
All those aspects related to the women emancipation.
The social aspect of women in the harem which is reflected in the novel is
limited. The women has no more social interaction but in their own harem and
their family. In the novel, it is told that women are not allowed to go to the outside
of the harem. In other word, women only can interact with the women in the
harem and their family. Living in harem is a big problem for the women. The
women who live in harem are always found many rules and they feel the rules
will never make women become better and growing.
The economic aspect of women in harem which is reflected in the novel is
nothing. It is dominated by the men. The central concern of the women related to
the economic aspects is the differentiation of the result for their work beside the
men. Although both of the men and the women are worked, but only the men earn
money and the women do not.This matter occurs caused by the type of the job
field. The women work only in the domestic area. Their job field is only in the
inside of the harem and they will not earn money as the result of their work. The
reverse, the men work in the public sphere and earn the money.
The political aspect of women in harem which is reflected in the novel is also
dominated by the men. Moreover, there is no woman who joins in the political
aspect. The existence of the women in political aspects is something which is
unusual in that era. It is meant that the women in that era do not commonly active
in the political aspects. Maybe, it becomes something acceptable for the women
348 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 because as far the researcher read the novel there is no meaningful concern from
the women about the women existence in political aspect.
The education aspect of women in harem which is reflected in the novel is
forbidden, it is meant that the inequalities exists because only the men can get
education. Not all women get the rights to get educated. The new view about the
right for women to get education is only near different with the older. The family
council states only little children who are deserve to get education. It can be
summarized that in education aspect, unequal right of education still exists in
harem.

ABSTRAK
Perubahan Kurikulum dari Kurikulum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan ke
Kurikulum 2013 yang baru saja berlangsung baru – baru ini otomatis juga
merubah pola pembelajaran yang berlangsung. Pembelajaran Bahasa
Inggris tentu saja bukanlah pengecualian. Salah satu materi yang
mengalami perubahan mencolok adalah adanya materi pembelajaran
sastra, dalam hal ini adalah materi cerita rakyat (folklore) dan lagu (song).
Tentunya sangat menarik untuk mengkaji bagaimana para peserta didik di
SMK yang terkait dengan praktek langsung secara teknis bisa
memanfaatkan materi tersebut untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berbahasa
inggris secara nyata. Di satu sisi, menarik juga untuk melihat bagaimana
seorang Guru SMK bisa memanfaatkan pembelajaran sastra yang terkesan
‘jauh’ dari pembelajaran praktik peserta didik SMK untuk menarik minat
dan kemampuan peserta didik SMK dalam berbahasa Inggris.
Kata Kunci: kurikulum 2013; sastra; cerita rakyat; lagu
A. PENDAHULUAN
Perubahan kurikulum, di mana pun, sebetulnya hampir sama, selalu
membutuhkan penyesuaian pola pikir para pemangku kepentingan (stake
holder). Yayasan, kepala sekolah, guru satuan pendidikan dan pengawas
sekolah perlu memahami perubahan kurikulum itu. Demikian pula yang
terjadi pada Kurikulum 2013 ini, ia hanya mungkin sukses bila ada perubahan
paradigma atau lebih tepatnya mindset para guru dalam proses pembelajaran.
Hal itu mengingat substansi perubahan dari Kurikulum 2006 (KTSP)
ke Kurikulum 2013 ini adalah perubahan proses pembelajaran, dari pola
pembelajaran ala bank, yaitu guru menulis di papan tulis dan murid mencatat
di buku serta guru menerangkan sedangkan murid mendengarkan menjadi
349 350 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 proses pembelajaran yang lebih mengedepankan murid untuk melakukan
pengamatan, bertanya, mengeksplorasi, mencoba, dan mengekspresikannya.
Proses pembelajaran yang mendorong siswa untuk aktif tersebut
hanya mungkin terwujud bila mindset guru telah berubah. Mereka tidak lagi
memiliki mindset bahwa mengajar harus di dalam kelas dan menghadap ke
papan tulis. Mengajar bisa dilakukan di perpustakaan, kebun, tanah lapang,
atau juga di sungai. Media pembelajaran pun tidak harus buku, alat peraga,
atau komputer. Tanam-tanaman dan pohon di kebun, sungai, dan sejenisnya
juga dapat menjadi media pembelajaran.
Makalah ini selanjutnya mencoba untuk memfokuskan permasalahan
pada adanya perubahan muatan dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di
Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (SMK) di mana buku materi ajar untuk peserta
didik disamakan dengan buku materi ajar untuk Sekolah Menengah Atas
(SMA). Satu hal menarik untuk disoroti adalah adanya pembelajaran sastra
berbahasa Inggris berupa cerita rakyat (folklore) dan lagu (song).
B. PEMBELAJARAN SASTRA DALAM KURIKULUM 2013
Secara umum Kompetensi Dasar pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris di
SMA maupun SMK mengandung dua Kompetensi dasar sebagai berikut:
1. Menganalisis fungsi sosial, struktur teks, dan unsur kebahasaan pada teks
naratif sederhana berbentuk legenda rakyat, sesuai dengan konteks
penggunaannya..
2. Menyebutkan fungsi sosial dan unsur kebahasaan dalam lagu.
Untuk menyederhanakan pembahasan, maka dalam makalah ini hanya
akan menyoroti Kompetensi Dasar yang terkandung dalam buku materi
Bahasa Inggris Kelas X Semester 2 untuk SMA/K yang diterbitkan oleh
Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Republik Indonesia pada Tahun
2014.
Didalam Kompetensi Dasar Bahasa Inggris Kelas X SMK,
kompetensi dasar yang dimaksud diatas muncul dalam:
3.10 Menganalisis fungsi sosial, struktur teks, dan unsur kebahasaan pada
teks naratif sederhana berbentuk legenda rakyat, sesuai dengan
konteks penggunaannya..
3.11 Menyebutkan fungsi sosial dan unsur kebahasaan dalam lagu.
Dalam berbagai penelitian ilmiah, sangatlah banyak disebutkan kalau
pembelajaran dengan lagu sangat mendukung pembelajaran kosakata
(vocabulary) dan mengasah kemampuan listening skill selain tentu saja untuk
memperdalam kemampuan tata bahasa (grammar).
Contoh folklore dalam buku Bahasa Inggris Kelas X Semester 2 untuk
SMA/K:
Once upon a time there was an old couple who didn’t have a child.
They lived in a small house near the village forest. ‘Please give us a child,”
they asked God everyday.
One day, from the household Shinto altar, they heard a cute cry, ‘Waa!
Waa!”
They Looked and saw a crying baby who looked just like a little finger.
‘This child must be a gift from God. Thanks to God!’
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 351 “We will call this child’Issumboshi’”, they said
Issumboshi (halaman 49)
Dalam penggalan folklore diatas maka dapat dilihat kalau tujuan
penggunaan teks diatas adalah untuk mempelajari:
1. Past Tense
2. Reported Speech (Direct and Indirect Speech)
Contoh lagu (song) dalam buku Bahasa Inggris Kelas X Semester 2
untuk SMA/K:
You’ve Got A Friend
When you’re ________ and _________
And you need a _________ _________
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To ________ _________ even your darkest night
You’ve Got A Friend (halaman 102)
Dalam penggalan lagu (song) diatas maka dapat dilihat kalau tujuan
penggunaan lagu diatas adalah untuk mempelajari:
1. Present Continuous Speech
2. Command and Request
Secara sepintas tidak ada yang salah dengan materi ajar diatas, apalagi
bagi para pendidik dan peserta didik SMA yang secara umum sudah
memenuhi tuntutan umum pendidikan dan aplikasi dalam dunia nyata SMA
yang bersinggungan dengan hal-hal umum. Tetapi bagaiman dengan SMK
terutama yang jurusan Teknologi dan Industri? Dimana hal-hal dan istilahistilah teknis tentu saja menjadi lebih berguna bagi para peserta didik SMK
dalam menghadapi dunia nyata khususnya dunia kerja dan industri.
C. PERANAN PEMBELAJARAN SASTRA BAHASA INGGRIS BAGI
PESERTA DIDIK SMK
Selanjutnya bagaimana peranan pembelajaran sastra bahasa Inggris
bagi peserta didik SMK? Selain aspek diatas, tentunya harus melihat dulu
tujuan yang tercantum dalam Kompetensi Inti dan Kompetensi Dasar 1 dan 2
dalam Mata Pelajaran Bahasa Inggris SMK sebagai berikut:
KOMPETENSI INTI
1. Menghayati dan mengamalkan
ajaran agama yang dianutnya
KOMPETENSI DASAR

fungsional.
Jika dilihat secara umum, maka tidak ada yang salah dengan
pemakaian sarana folklore and song dalam mencapai tujuan tersebut diatas.
Tapi jika dilihat secara komprehensif, maka akan timbul pertanyaanpertanyaan mendasar sebagai berikut:
1. Apa fungsi folklore secara teknis jika diberikan kepada peserta didik
Teknologi Kendaraan Ringan misalnya?
2. Apakah kosakata yang dipelajari di dalam folklore bisa diaplikasikan
secara langsung dalam dunia kerja?
3. Bisakah lagu memberikan fungsi kerja aplikatif selain sebagai penenang
dan sarana motivasi belajar?
Karena itu perlu dikaji ulang pemakaian folklore dalam pembelajaran
Bahasa Inggris yang diberikan kepada Peserta Didik SMK. Bagaimana
dengan penggunaan karya sastra lain seperti film-film futuristik yang
berkaitan dengan banyak istilah teknologi? Sebut saja, film semacam Iron
Man, Time Machine atau Back to the Future, bahkan film Spiderman atau
Batman juga bercerita banyak tentang teknologi masa depan dan kekinian.
Tentu saja hal itu perlu dicoba dan dikaji demi adanya hubungan fungsi nyata
dalam pembelajaran dengan kegunaan aplikatif dalam kehidupan nyata.
D. PENUTUP
Berdasarkan uraian singkat diatas, maka bisa diambil beberapa
kesimpulan sebagai berikut:
1. Perlu pembedaan antara pembelajaran sastra bagi peserta didik SMA
dengan SMK yang tentu saja harus sesuai dengan fungsi harian dalam
kehidupan nyata
2. Perlu dicoba penggunaan film futuristik untuk media pembelajaran bagi
peserta didik SMK
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 353 3.
4.
Perlu pengenalan folklore asli Indonesia untuk menumbuhkan sikap cinta
tanah air dan nasionalisme
Perlu pemilihan lagu berbahasa Inggris yang selektif agar tujuan dalam
Kompetensi Inti dan Kompetensi Dasar ke-1 bisa tercapai, karena banyak
lagu yang secara tak langsung ‘menentang kuasa Tuhan Yang Maha Esa’

BERTEMA PATRIOTIK

Abstrak
Chairil Anwar sebagai salah satu penyair besar Indonesia banyak melahirkan
sajak-sajak fenomenal yang selalu menarik untuk terus ditelaah. Telaah karya
sastra dalam perspektif linguistika pada makalah ini berusaha melihat pemaknaan
teks sastra dari sisi lain, khusunya pada makna ideasional dalam tiga buah sajak
yang bertema patriotik, yaitu “Diponegoro,” “1943,” dan “Kerawang-Bekasi.”
Makna ideasional dalam pendekatan linguistik sistemik fungsional merujuk pada
enam tipe proses, yaitu material, mental, verbal, perilaku, relasional, dan
eksistensiall. Penyibakan makna ideasional direalisasikan melalui fungsi
predikatif pada tataran klausa. Fungsi predikatif dalam telaah tata bahasa
menunjukkan suatu ide atau gagasan seseorang yang diekspresikan melalui sarana
komunikasi baik lisan maupun tulisan. Fungsi ini merupakan aspek vital manusia
dalam menyampaikan tujuan sosialnya karena merefleksikan posisi, pendirian,
dan bahkan ideologi seseorang dalam menyikapi suatu peristiwa. Sebagaimana
yang terkandung dalam ketiga puisi tersebut, Chairil Anwar berusaha
mengekspresikan ide dan keinginan sosialnya yang teklepas dari konteks sosiokultural pada saat sajak itu diciptakan. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa bahasa terpilih
telah melakukan peranannya sesuai dengan fungsi dan tujuan sosialnya.
Kata kunci: makna ideasional, tipe proses, konteks sosio-kultural, sajak
“Diponegoro,” “1943,” dan “Kerawang-Bekasi.”
A. PENDAHULUAN
Makalah ini berisi analisis realisasi makna ideasional yang terdapat
dalam sajak-sajak (selanjutnya disebut puisi) Chairil Anwar yang bertema
patriotik, yaitu puisi yang berjudul “Diponegoro,“ (disingkat DP), “1943,“
dan “Kerawang Bekasi” (disingkat KB). Puisi DP dan 1943 ditulis pada tahun
yang sama, yakni 1943 atau masa prakemerdekaan, sedangkan puisi KB
ditulis pada tahun 1948 atau pascakemerdekaan Republik Indonesia.
Penyebutan patriotik dimaknai sebagai puisi yang merujuk pada nilai-nilai
perjuangan, kepahlawanan, dan cinta tanah air. Sementara itu, makna
ideasional adalah makna yang merepresentasikan realitas fisik yang terkait
dengan interpretasi dan pengalaman partisipannya (Santoso, 2003:20). Makna
ideasional ini merupakan salah satu dari tiga metafungsi bahasa
(interpersonal, ideasional, dan tekstual) yang direalisasikan dalam satuan
klausa. Pendekatan sistemik fungsional adalah salah satu bidang pendekatan
analisis wacana yang menempatkan teks sebagai sebuah interaksi sosial.
Keterpaduan sebuah teks akan mendukung pesan yang disampaikan kepada
mitra tutur.
354 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 355 Lebih lanjut, Halliday (1994:xiv) menyatakan bahwa usaha
memeroleh makna dari sebuah teks dapat memperlakukan teks sebagai
sebuah produk sekaligus sebuah proses dalam waktu bersamaan. Analisis
wacana dalam pendekatan sistemik fungsional menempatkan teks di dalam
konteks sosial dan konteks budaya untuk mendapatkan makna dari ekploitasi
bahasa. Teori sistemik yang dirancang mempunyai konsep fungsional, yaitu
untuk melihat dan menganalisis bagaimana sebuah bahasa itu digunakan
dalam sebuah konteks dan bukan melihat bagaimana bahasa itu dibentuk
(Halliday dalam Djatmika, 2012:11). Oleh karenanya, bertolak dari
pandangan ini teks puisi dianalisis sebagai wujud perilaku komunikatif dan
sebagai bentukan makna yang terjadi pada konteks budaya, yakni sebuah
ranah terjadinya interaksi dan proses verbal sosial. Selain itu, pemilihan teks
puisi sebagai sumber data merupakan suatu upaya untuk melihat pemaknaan
teks sastra dari sisi lain. Sebagaimana diketahui bahwa sejauh ini dikotomi
paradigma kajian terhadap teks sastra dan nonsastra masih mengemuka,
padahal keduanya sama-sama menggunakan medium bahasa. Karena itu,
makalah ini berusaha menyibak teks sastra - khususnya puisi - dari aspek
linguistika melalui pendekatan linguistik sistemik fungsional. Lebih spesifik,
rumusan masalah dalam makalah ini adalah mengurai realisasi makna
ideasional serta memerikan pemaknaan kontekstual yang terkandung dalam
ketiga puisi tersebut.
B. KAJIAN PUSTAKA
Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional diperkenalkan oleh M.A.K. Halliday
dan dikembangkan oleh para pakar, seperti Martin (1997), Eggins (1994),
Matthiessen dkk. (2010), Bloor (2004), Gerot dan Wignell (1995). Pandangan
Halliday yang meletakkan bahasa sebagai sebuah sistem sosial dan budaya,
bukan hanya sebuah struktur teks itu bertolak dari pemikiran Firth yang
mengemukakan konteks situasi dalam bahasa. Pokok-pokok pandangan Firth
(dalam Halliday dan Hasan, 1992) itu menyatakan bahwa di dalam bahasa
setidaknya terdapat empat hal yang disebut konteks situasi, antara lain
pelibat, tindakan, ciri-ciri situasi lain yang relevan, dan dampak-dampak
tindakan tutur.
Pelibat adalah aktor yang terlibat dalam peristiwa tutur, tindakan
pelibat adalah aktivitas yang dilakukan oleh para pelibat baik verbal maupun
nonverbal, dan ciri-ciri situasi lain merupakan lingkungan yang berada di
sekitar peristiwa tutur, sedangkan dampak-dampak adalah bentuk-bentuk
perubahan yang ditimbulkan dari adanya tindakan tutur tersebu. Keempat
konsep tersebut pada tataran berikutnya dielaborasikan dalam tiga aspek yang
dikenal dengan metafungsi bahasa, yaitu makna ideasional (field), makna
interpersonal (tenor), dan makna tekstual (mode). Dengan ketiga makna
tersebut pemaknaan wacana sebuah teks dapat dipaparkan melalui fitur-fitur
leksikogramatika.
Ketiga metafungsi bahasa tersebut dengan konteks situasi terdapat
hubungan yang erat ketika unit wacana melakukan fungsi sosialnya (Eggins
dan Martin dalam Santosa, 2011:5). Konteks situasi meliputi medan, yakni
hal atau aktivitas yang terjadi, pelibat atau dapat dikatakan pelaku persitiwa,
sedangkan dan sarana adalah media atau saluran untuk meralisasikan unit
356 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 wacana itu. Hubungan kedekatan ketiga aspek konteks situasi dan ketiga
metafungsi bahasa dalam mewujudkan fungsi sosial suatu wacana di dalam
suatu konteks budaya dapat diperlihatkan pada figur berikut
Konfigurasi Bahasa dan Konteksnya
Nilai dan norma kultural
Proses sosial (genre) Konteks situasi:
medan pelibat Metafungsi bahasa: ideasional interpersonal sarana tekstual Bahasa sebagai wacana (register)
(diadaptasi dari Martin 1992 dalam Santosa 2011)
Dari figur di atas dapat dinyatakan bahwa wacana merupakan ekspresi
yang merealisasikan nilai, norma kultural, dan konteks sosial. Selain itu,
wacana juga menggambarkan konfigurasi makna di dalam konteks situasi
serta metafungsi bahasa. Karena itu, wacana akan berubah apabila konteks
situasi dan konteks kulturalnya berubah.
Lebih lanjut, makalah ini difokuskan pada penyibakan makna
ideasional, yakni makna yang menunjukkan realitas fisik dan pengalaman
yang direalisasikan melalui satuan klausa. Terdapat enam tipe proses, yaitu
proses material, proses mental, proses verbal, proses relasional, proses
perilaku, dan proses eksistensia (Halliday: 1994)l . Proses material adalah
suatu proses secara fisik murni. Proses ini terdiri dari dua macam yaitu
melakukan sesuatu (doing) dan kejadian (happening). Proses doing memiliki
konstituen aktor-proses-goal. Proses materi doing bisa bersifat kreatif
misalnya membuat, mengembangkan, mendisain dan bersifat dispositif, yaitu
memengaruhi, misalnya memetik, menendang, mengirim, dan sebagainya.
Proses mental adalah proses berpikir, mengindera, dan merasa. Proses ini
diklasifikasikan menjadi tiga, yaitu kognitif, perseptif, dan afektif. Proses
kognitif berkenaan dengan penggunaan otak dalam berproses, misalnya
berpikir, melamun, dan mengerti. Proses perseptif berkenaan dengan
penggunaan indera dalam berproses, misalnya melihat, mendengar dan
merasa. Proses afektif berkenaan dengan penggunaan perasaan atau hati
misalnya mencintai, membenci, senang, suka, tidak suka, dan sebagainya.
Proses verbal adalah proses berkata murni tidak ada unsur perilakunya yang
di dalam bahasa Indonesia direalisasikan, misalnya berkata, berujar,
bertanya. Proses perilaku ini mempunyai dua jenis yaitu proses perilaku
verbal dan proses perilaku mental. Proses perilaku verbal adalah proses yang
menggunakan verbal di dalam melakukan tindakan. Misalnya menyarankan,
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 357 mengklaim, mendiskusikan dan sebagainya. Proses relasional adalah proses
yang menghubungkan antara paratisipan yang satu dengan partisipan atau
unit yang lain. Hubungan tersebut memberikan nilai terhadap partisipan
pertama. Proses ini mempunyai dua jenis, yaitu proses relasional atributif dan
proses relasional identifikasi.
Proses eksistensial adalah proses yang
menunjukkan keberadaan atau kejadian sesuatu. Di dalam bahasa Indonesia
proses ini direalisasikan dengan ada, terdapat, muncul.
C. METODE
Data penelitian makalah ini dikumpulkan dengan teknik pustaka.
Teknik pustaka adalah teknik pengumpulan data dengan mempergunakan
sumber-sumber tertulis untuk memperoleh data (Subroto, 2007:47). Sumber
data penelitian ini adalah teks tertulis yang berwujud teks puisi karya Chairil
Anwar yang berunsur patriotik, yaitu “Diponegoro,” “1943, ”dan “KerawangBekasi” Adapun populasi penelitian ini mencakup seluruh satuan klausa dari
buku kumpulan puisi Aku Ini Binatang Jalang. Dalam pada itu, pengambilan
sampel dilakukan dengan teknik sampel bertujuan (purposive sampling),
yakni pilihan sampel diarahkan pada data yang penting yang berkaitan
dengan permasalahan yang sedang diteliti (Sutopo, 2006:64). Adapun sampel
dalam telaah ini adalah makna ideasional yang direalissaikan dalam tataran
klausa dari ketiga puisi tersebut .Sementara itu, untuk mengurai dan
menganalisis data yang berupa satuan predikatif klausa teks puisi, digunakan
metode agih, yakni metode yang alat penentunya adalah bagian dari bahasa
yang bersangkutan. Lebih lanjut, realisasi metode ini digunakan teknik bagi
unsur langsung (BUL) sehingga tampak keterpilahan antarunit wacana
(Sudaryanto, 1993).
D. PEMBAHASAN
1. Analisis Data
Secara bentuk dan struktur teks puisi berbeda dengan teks lainnya,
seperti teks narasi dalam prosa atau teks eksposisi dalam berita. Pradopo
(2012:7) menyatakan bahwa kesatuan korespondensi puisi adalah satuan
akustis (bunyi). Karena itu, tidak mengherankan jika dalam satuan-satuan
klausa pada teks puisi yang dianalisis berupa kalimat-kalimat elips
(taklengkap). Seperti yang tampak pada ketiga puisi yang ditelaah ini,
ketiadaan unsur subjek sebagai partisipan maupun predikat sebagai realitas
pengalaman pada satuan-satuan klausa dimunculkan penulis untuk
memudahkan konteks wacana. Realisasi makna ideasional yang tampak pada
penggunaan tipe proses disajikan pada data berikut.

2. Interprestasi Kontekstual
a. Proses Relasional: Atributif
Tentang proses relasional atributif dapat diuraikan sebagai berikut.
Telah diketahui bahwa proses relasional-atributif menunjukkan keadaan, sifat
atau segala sesuatu yang menerangkan partisipan. Dominasi proses ini
menunjukkan bahwa penyair ingin menggambarkan sedetail-detailnya
mengenai keadaan yang sebanarnya pada masa itu. Pada puisi “Diponegoro”
penyair ingin memperlihatkan bagaimana sosok Diponegoro dapat
menginsipari semua orang (rakyat Indonesia) untuk melawan segala bentuk
penjajahan. Sebagaimana diketahui Diponegoro merupakan seorang pangeran
yang putra tertua dari Sultan Hamengkubuwono III (1811–1814). Ibunya
Raden Ayu Mangkarawati merupakan keturunan Kyai Agung Prampelan
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 361 yaitu ulama yang sangat disegani di masa panembahan senapati mendirikan
kerajaan Mataram. Pangeran Diponegoro adalah seorang pemberani
khususnya dalam melawan pemerintahan Belanda yang ada di Indonesia saat
itu, sikap Diponegoro yang menentang Belanda secara terbuka mendapat
simpati dan dukungan rakyat. Pada saat perang Diponegoro kerugian dari
pihak Belanda tidak kurang dari 15.000 tentara dan 20 juta gulden. Atas dasar
konteks sosio-kultural yang melatari tokoh Diponegoro Chairil Anwar
mengekspresikan sikap perjuangan yang dapat direalisasikan melalui proses
relasional bait sepert
hidup kembali
menjadi api
(tuan) tak gentar
lawan banyaknya seratus kali,
(tuan) berselempang semangat yang tak bisa mati,
ini barisan tak bergenderang-berpalu,
kepercayaan (adalah) tanda menyerbu,
sekali (kita) berarti,
sudah itu (kita) mati.
(yang) punah di atas menghamba,
(yang) binasa di atas ditinda
Frasa hidup kembali memberi atribut bahwa tokoh Diponegoro
masih terus hidup, ada, bergerak, dan bekerja sebagaimana mestinya. Makna
ada atau “hidup” di sini dapat dipahami sebagai semangat juang Diponegoro.
Proses relasional pada frasa menjadi api, tak gentar, dan banyaknya seratus
kali menunjukkan semangat, kekuatan, keberanian yang menyala-nayala
ketika mengahadapi lawan meskipun tak sebanding. Demikian halnya pada
berselempang semangat, barisan tak bergenderang-berpalu, kepercayaan
(adalah) tanda menyerbu yang berarti hanya bermodalkan keberanian dan
kepercayaan yang tinggi karena dalam keadaan keterbatasan persenjataan,
tetapi sanggup untuk melawan musuh. Selanjutnya, pada bait-bait berikutnya,
yakni klausa 16 dan 17 menerangkan suatu keadaan yang pada akhirnya
mereka telah gugur sebagai pahlawan bangsa
Pada sisi lain, puisi “1943” - dengan asumsi konteks peristiwa pada
saat tahun itu - menggambarkan rentetan kejadian yang dialami tokoh aku
(atau mungkin Chairil Anwar sepanjang tahun 1943. Indonesia belum
menjadi negara yang merdeka. Indonesia masih terjajah dan ditindas. Pada
tahun itu, kekuasaan berada di tangan Jepang, yang sebelumnya merebut
kekuasaan dari Belanda. Partisipan yang diatributkan dalam puisi ini dapat
digambarkan dalam penggunaan leksis sebagai berikut.
(kita)membusuk
terasa (racunnya)
(kita dalam keadaan) tenggelam darah
(kita dalam keadaan) putus
(kita)dalam keadaan) candu
(kita dalam keadaan) tumbang
Leksis-leksis tersebut menunjukkan bahwa “rakyat Indonesia” pada
saat itu sedang mengalami penderitaan yang sangat mendalam. Racun
dikonotasikan sesuatu yang merusak manusia baik secara fisik maupun batin.
362 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Racun menandakan sesuatu yang berbahaya bagi tubuh. Racun itu berada
pada tegukan pertama, artinya bahaya itu mulai masuk ke dalam tubuh.
Dengan masuknya racun itu, paru-paru terasa membusuk. Segalanya tampak
“putus” tidak ada jalan lagi. Darah pun tenggelam dalam nanah, artinya
bahwa tubuh dipenuhi dengan penyakit.. Kondisi ini menjadi semacam candu
atau membuat ketagihan. Dalam kesuraman, tokoh aku pun selalu ketagihan
untuk berada dalam kemuraman. Artinya, tokoh aku terseret ke dalam arus
kemuraman itu, tak bisa keluar dari kemuraman. Selanjutnya, “tumbang”
semua harapan untuk mendapatkan sesuatu yang baik. Lebih menderita lagi,
keadaan partisipan diatributkan luluh, terbenam, hilang, dan lumpuh artinya
segala harapan telah terkubur, hilang, atau tidak berdaya lagi.
Namun demikian, meskipun dalam keadaan penderitaan yang sangat
dalam, harapan rakyat untuk tetap bangkit masih ada yang diatributkan dalam
leksis berikut. Kata tegak mengisyaratkan optimistis terhadap kebangkitan
kehidupan atas keadaan yang telah rubuh dan runtuh Lebih lanjut, keadaan
tersebut tetap belum berubah yang digambarkan kuning dan merah sebagai
nanah dan darah yang terus mengucur hitam dan kering sebagai bentuk
kedukaan atas masa depan yang masih suram hingga rata semuanya hancur
sehingga membuat rakyat hanya bisa terpaku atas penderitaan yang belum
berujung.
Pada puisi KB, Chairil Anwar berusaha “mewakili” suara para
pejuang yang telah gugur di medan perang, lebih khusus merujuk peristiwa
pertempuran berdarah melawan Belanda antara Kerawang dan Bekasi pada
Desember 1947. Penyair memberikan atribut kepada partisipan (pejuang)
yang saat ini dalam keadaan terbaring, mati muda, menjadi mayat dan
tinggal tulang belulang tak bernilai seperti tampak pada kutipan berikut
kami mati muda
yang tinggal tulang diliputi debu
kami cuma tulang-tulang berserakan
tapi (kami) adalah kepunyaanmu
Keadaan yang demikian dimaksudkan agar mendapatkan perhatian
bagi yang masih hidup tentang perjuangan para pendahulunya sehingga
mereka yang masih hidup dapat meneriskan cita-cita dan perjuangan
mencapai kemerdekaan tanah air.
b. Proses Material
Selain proses atributif yang dominan, proses material juga terbilang
menonjol, yaitu sebesar 22% klausa dari jumlah keseluruhan puisi. Proses
material yang merefleksikan tindakan fisik partisipan direalisasikan dalam
berbagai bentuk. Puisi DP menunjukkan tindakan represif, seperti kata maju
yang diulang sampai tiga kali dan dipertegas lagi pada bait berikut
(ayo kita) serbu
(ayo kita) serang
(ayo kita) terjang
Sementara itu, puisi 1943 juga menunjukkan hal yang sama, seperti
kata berderak dan menyerang. Tindakan-tindakan fisik dari leksisi yang
terdapat kedua puisi tersebut mencerminkan perlawanan rakyat Indonesia
terhadap belnggu benjajah atas penderitaan berkepanjangan yang dialami.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 363 Di sisi lain, proses material yang memperlihatkan keinginan penyair
agar perjuangan tersebut tetap berlanjut tampak dalam puisi KB. Penyair
mengekspresikan keinginannya itu dengan leksis coba, berikan, teruskan, dan
menjaga. Hal tersebut menunjukkan tindakan nyata para pendahulu yang
sudah gugur. Secara keseluruhan proses material yang terkandung dalam
ketiga puisi tersebut mengimplikasikan suatu bentuk tindakan konkret
perjuangan para pahlawan dalam mengusir penjajah dan pesan agar
perjuangan tersebut dapat diteruskan oleh generasi-generasi berikutnya.
c. Proses Mental
Selain proses relasiona-atributif dan material, proses-proses yang lain
tidak dominan. Proses mental sebesar 8% terdapat dalam puisi DP dan KBi,
sedangkan puisi 1943 tidak ditemukan. Dalam puisi DP terdapat frasa harus
merasa yang mencerminkan suatu keadaan menderita yang memang dialami.
Sementara itu, puisi KB terdapat kata mendengar dan mendegap merupakan
suatu bentuk perasaan yang mendalam bahwa perjuangan yang penuh
kekhawatiran agar didenga oleh semua pihat. Bahkan, lebih tegas lagi
terdapat kata kenang kenanglahr yang diulang dalam tiga larik yang berbeda
memperlihatkan perasaan pejuang agar tidak dilupakan di kemudain hari.
d. Proses Perilaku: Verbal dan Mental
Proses perilaku baik verbal maupun mental ditemukan sebesar 7%
dari puisi 1943 dan puisi KB, sedangkan puisi DP tidak ditemukan proses ini.
Dalam puisi 1943 perilaku verbal direalisasikan pada kata mangaum,
mengguruh, menentang. Hal ini memperlihatkan sautu usaha perlawanan
melalui “suara” yang selama ini terus dibelenggu kaum penjajah. Sementara
itu, dalam puisi KB perilaku mental direalisasikan pada kata
memperhitungkan, tentukan, dan berjagalah. Hal tersebut mengimplikasikan
adanya suatu usaha mempertimbangkan dan mewaspadai setiap gerak
langkah dalam melaksanakan perjuangan.
e. Proses Verbal
Proses verbal hanya ditemukan sebesar 6% dalam puisi KB,
sedangkan puisi DP dan 1943 tidak ditemukan. Sebagaimana diketahui bahwa
proses ini adalah proses berkata secara murni. Dalam masa penjajahan hakhak rakyat dalam mengaspirasikan suaranya sangat dibatasi oleh kaum
penjajah. Oleh karena itu secara alami penyair dalam mengekspresikan
idenya tidak begitu menonjolkan aspek ini, melainkan lebih banyak
menyuarakan dari sisi keadaan (relasional) dan tindakan konkret (material)
yang perlu dilakukan sebagaimana yang telah dibahas di bagian awal. Proses
verbal dalam puisi KB diekspresikan penyair dengan kata berkata dan bicara.
Kata
yang sebelumnya diawali keterangan aspek tidak lagi bisa
menunjukkan ketidakmampuan mereka (pejuang) dalam mengaspirasikan
keinginannya karena sudah gugur di medan pertempuran. Semantara itu, kata
bicara lebih memperlihatkan pesan kepada generasi penerusnya agar turut
aktif menyuarakan keinginannya untuk merdeka dari segala bentuk
penindasan.
f. Proses Eksistensial
Akhrinya, proses eksistensial merupakan proses yang paling sedikit
ditemukan yakni sebesar 5%. Dalam puisi DP, proses ini deralisasikan secara
implisit, yaitu pedang (berada) di kanan dan keris (berada) di kiri yang dapat
364 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 disisipkan kata berada tersaebut. Proses in memperlihatkan “masih” adanya
perlawanan rakyat khususnya pada sosok Diponegoro bahwa keterbatasan
senjata, tidak menyurutkan tekad untuk melawan penjajah. Pada puisi 1943
eksistensi yang ingin disampaikan penyair adalah adanya racun (klausa 1)
dalam diri rakyat Indonesia. Keberadaan racun dimaknai sebagai “penyakit”
yang sudah mendarah daging, yaitu berupa penderitaan, kesengsaraan,
belenggu, penindasan, keputusasaan, ketidakberdayaan, dan sebagainya.
Sementara itu, dalam puisi KB proses eksistensial direalisasikan kata ada
pada klausa 24 yang menggambarkan adanya perasaan hampa, sunyi, atau
kosong karena perjuangan yang masih panjang.
E. PENUTUP
Hasil analisis di atas dapat disimpulkan sebagai berikut.
 Realisasi makna ideasional dalam ketiga puisi Chairil Anwar yang bertema
patriotik didominasi oleh penggunaan proses relasional: atributif dan proses
material. Selanjutnya, secara ditemukan penggunaan proses mental, proses
perilaku (verbal dan mental), proses verbal, dan proses eksistensial.
 Penggunaan proses relasional-atributf yang dominan merefleksikan sikap
penyair yang hendak mendeskripsikan secara detail mengenai sifat dan
keadaan rakyat Indonesia pada masa itu yang penuh penderitaan sehingga
seolah-oleh penyair hendak menyampaikan inilah “neraka” dunia sebagai
akibat penindasan kaum penjajah (Belandan dan Jepang). Pada sisi lain,
dominasi proses material memperlihatkan sikap “tidak mau tinggal diam”
atau perlawanan secara konkret yang ditunjukkan untuk melawan segala
bentuk penjajahan itu.
 Penggunaan proses mental, perilaku (verbal-mental), verbal, dan eksistensial
yang tidak menonjol secara alamiah memperlihatkan karakteristik penyair
dalam mengekspresikan sikap dan pandangannya. Dalam proses mental,
misalnya, penyair sudah kurang begitu memedulikan lagi perasaannya karena
luka yang sudah begitu dalam. Proses perilaku verbal-mental dan proses
verbal menunjukkan bahwa segala pertimbangan akal sehat dan aspirasi
meraka sudah tidak lagi dihargai, Sementara itu, proses eksistensial
menunjukkan bahwa keberadaan mereka sangatlah terbatas dan tidak tampak
karena segala sesuatu memang ditentukan oleh penjajah.
 Pendekatan sistemik fungsional melalui makna ideasional menunjukkan
karakteristik yang kuat dari sosok Chairil Anwar dalam sikap, pandangan,
dan ideologinya yang kuat terhadap tanah air. Menjadi bangsa yang mandiri
dan berdaulat adalah cita-citanya di masa depan. Oleh karena itu, penderitaan
rakyat yang dilihatnya selama ini (proses relasional) tidak bisa dibiarkan dan
hanya dapat diselesaikan melalui perjuangan fisik yang nyata (proses
material).
 Pemilihan leksis (bahasa yang terpilih) yang diekspresikan melalui puisi-puisi
tersebut merefleksikan konteks sosial-kultural pada saat puisi itu diciptakan. .

Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 THE USE OF CRITICIZING STRATEGIES IN ENGLISH AND JAVANESE
LANGUAGES BY JAVANESE EFL LEARNERS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY
SARI RACHMAWATI
S200140008
MAGISTER OF LANGUAGE STUDY
MUHAMMADIYAH UNIVERSITY OF SURAKARTA2015
A. Introduction
In communication, sometimes people give negative evaluation as a criticism
to others in several kinds of conditions. In order to convey their critiques, the
speakers will try to find the best words in a best way so the listeners would not feel
threaten. Here, the use of politeness strategy is regarded as the best way in order to
fulfill the purpose in criticizing.
The study on criticism is worth to be done as the act of criticizing is one of
the act that highly potential to threaten the face of the hearers. Various strategies are
expected and recommended to be used by the speakers in order to alleviate the
threats.
A criticism can be realized by either direct or indirect strategies. Following
Blum-Kulka (1987), the directness level of a criticism in the present study was
determined by the degree of illocutionary transparency, and thus the amount of effort
needed to interpret the illocutionary point of this criticism. That is, it assumes that
‘‘the more indirect the mode of realization, the higher will be the interpretive
demands’’ (Blum-Kulka, 1987: 133).
The strategies used by speakers in criticism are varied, and they have strong
relationship with the politeness strategies involved. So, how far the speakers vary
their ways in criticism is going to be connected with their politeness strategies. This
phenomenon is not only happen in English conversation, but also in other languages
including in Javanese language. Even, Javanese language has more levels in
politeness strategies in communication.
The English speakers tend to convey criticism only in two ways, whether it
directly or indirectly. They will perform this directly means that they say what they
think about something directly without any hesitancy. Or they can use indirect
utterances such in the form of questions in order to soften their criticism so that the
hearers would not feel irritated.
Whereas, the condition above is different if compare to Javanese culture;
where criticism is regarded as a very sensitive form of communication. They will try
to avoid this kind of communication, although the real condition is the contrary. If it
is urgent, they will find the politest way in conveying their criticism and indirectly.
The background extended above motivated this research to deeply dig into the use of
criticizing strategies used by speakers in criticizing others, especially those for
Javanese EFL learners compare to the criticizing strategies carried out by native
369 370 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 speakers of Javanese. Besides, the study also concerns with the use of politeness
strategies used in English uttered by Javanese EFL learners and the politeness
strategies applied in Javanese by native Javanese speakers. From the investigation,
the results will be compared, whether they have the same politeness strategies or not.
In overall, this research is focused on the investigation of the use of criticism
strategies and politeness strategies used in criticizing performed by Javanese EFL
learners and native Javanese speakers and the comparison of them.
B. Theoretical Review
a. Criticism (The Acts of Criticizing)
Riekkinen (2009:18) confirms that criticism is an act that may cause
Face-Threatening Act (FTA) because it expresses negative evaluation to the
hearer. When a speaker employs criticism, he may threat the positive selfimage of the addressee. For that reason, a speaker cannot criticize directly to
anyone because he must consider some basic rules of criticizing.
Next discussion is about the crucial rules when a speaker criticizes
hearer. The first point is the relationship between the speaker and the hearer.
Tsui (1994:147) states that a speaker may not criticize others unless they
know each other well. It implies a statement that a speaker may extend his
criticism baldly if he has an intimate relationship with the hearer. This will
be different when a speaker criticizes someone who has social distance with
him. He may be more indirect since he considers about the distant
relationship between him and the hearer.
The second point is about the relative power of the speaker over the
hearer. A speaker who has greater power tends to criticize the hearer
directly. On the contrary, people having lower of power tend to use
indirectness with people who have greater authority (Thomas, 1995:124).
Classification of Criticism
As assumed by Blum Kulka (1987:133) that “the more indirect the
mode of realization, the higher will be the interpretive demands”; means that
the level of directness of criticism is determined by the degree of
illocutionary transparency. Following Nguyen’s investigation (2008), the
acts of criticism are explained in the following taxonomy:

b. Politeness
Politeness theory is the theory that accounts for the redressing of
the affronts to face posed by face-threatening acts to addressees. First
formulated in 1978 by Penelope Brown and Stephen Levinson, politeness
theory has since expanded academia’s perception of politeness. Politeness is
the expression of the speakers’ intention to mitigate face threats carried by
certain face threatening acts toward another (Mills, 2003:6). Another
definition is "a battery of social skills whose goal is to ensure everyone feels
affirmed in a social interaction". Being polite therefore consists of attempting
to save face for another.
There are four types of politeness strategies proposed by Brown and
Levinson (1987, 68-71), including bald on record, negative politeness,
positive politeness, and off-record-indirect strategy. In bald on record
strategy, the speaker says what he wants to say without any politeness. In
other words, the speaker does not attempt to minimize the threat to the
hearer’s face. It is used mostly for the speaker who has intimate relationship
with the hearer.
For negative politeness strategy, Brown and Levinson (1987: 101)
stated that positive politeness is designed to meet the face needs by
performing an action like complimenting or showing concern for
another person. Negative politeness is designed to protect to other
person when face needs are threatened. Whereas, the off-record strategy or
the indirect strategy is used when a speaker wants to does an FTA but he
wants to avoid the responsibility in doing it Brown and Levinson, 1987:211).
c. Politeness and Criticism
Brown and Levinson (1987) assert that some speech acts
intrinsically threaten positive and negative face of speakers and hearers or
face-threatening acts (FTA). For example, disagreement and criticism
threaten hearers’ positive face, while requests threaten hearers’ negative
face.
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 373 d. Javanese Values in Language
In Javanese language, there are some principles and complex
relationships in the use of language that also called as language levels
(Errington, 1988). The “levels” are illustrated primarily in sets of lexical
alternant (see table 2.3), although their differences are actually not only
lexical.

Although the Javanese “language levels” are often described as
differing mainly in lexicon (sets of lexical alternants) and in some special
affixes, Errington (1984:9) has pointed out that they also differ in prosody
and morphophonemics, although these aspects have been little studied.
C. Research Method
Research method consists of the type of the research, object of the research,
subject of the research, data and data source, technique of collecting data, data
validity, and technique of analyzing data.
1. Research Type
The research approach used in this study is descriptive comparative
research. Isaac (1971:46) explains that the purpose of descriptive research is to
describe the facts and the characteristics of interested area of population in a
systematical, factual, and accurate procedure. In addition, descriptive research is
the data base that purely descriptively accumulated. Thus, it is not essential
explain relationships, test hypothesis, make predictions, or get at meanings and
implications.
2. Research Object
The object of the study in this research is the criticizing strategy in
English and Javanese language used by Javanese EFL learners.
3. Research Subject
For the concern of the present study, several Javanese EFL students
studying at IAIN Salatiga and Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta will be
randomly selected. The selection of the subjects was done on the basis of the
following criteria: a) they are Javanese EFL students in the third or fourth year of
graduate study, and the students in the postgraduate program b) they have studied
English subject at least 6 years; and c) they agreed to be chosen as subjects of the
study. Whereas, for native Javanese speakers, the criteria are a) they are Javanese
and b) their average age is between 23-40 years old. The total respondents that
374 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 would be taken in doing the research are 60 respondents, which consist of 30
respondents from Javanese EFL learners and 30 respondents from native speakers
of Javanese.
4. Data and Data Source
The data are the criticizing strategies and the politeness strategies on
criticizing used by the Javanese EFL learners and native speakers of Javanese.
The data sources are taken from the utterances of the speakers as the respondents.
As the source of data, utterances uttered by the speakers in their ways of
criticizing will be examined by the writer from the form of discourse completion
task.
5. Technique of Collecting Data
The technique of collecting data used in this research is Discourse
Completion Task (DCT). This is the technique where the researchers used as an
instrument to elicit the data in interlanguage pragmatic studies. The writer took
DCT as the method of data collection as it assumed as the most prevalent tool
used in pragmatic studies, although there is still a great deal of controversy in it
(Leech, 2014:252).
DCT is not separated from Blum-Kulka’s influential research program
called CCSARP (Cross-Cultural Speech Act Realization Project) that focused on
the acts of requests and apologies. The members of certain cultural communities
and the different languages speakers are compared on how they handled the same
task of speech act production. The task used in this research was further known as
DCT.
Following Blum-Kulka’s theory, the forms of DCT has been developed
by several researchers, such as MDCT or multiple-choice discourse completion
tasks as explained by Brown (2001).
6. Technique of Analyzing Data
Data analysis is the process of systematically searching and arranging the
interview and understanding them and to the researcher to present what he has
discovered to others (Bogdan and Bikllen 1998: 157). The steps of analysis are as
follow:
a. Data Collection
In collecting the data, the writer collected them by questioning the Javanese
EFL learners and native Javanese in the form of DCT. After the data was
collected, they were compiled into a complete table of data. These data results
also served in the attachment of the research.
b. Identification
In this section, the writer identified the respondents’ answers that will be
examined from the results of data collection. The task is to determine the object
of the research; those are the politeness strategy used in criticizing.
c. Data reduction
In data reduction, the researcher reduced data that do not fulfill the research
targets.
d. Classification
The writer classified the data into several groups based on the language is used
(English or Javanese) and from the background of the respondents, whether
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 375 they are graduate students or postgraduates. And the last, the researcher put the
data that are collected in a separated list.
e. Data Analysis
Data analysis is the core of these processes in analyzing the data. The writer
analyzed the politeness strategies used by the respondents both in English and
Javanese language and classified them. This process is the deepening process of
the classification of the research process.
f. Drawing conclusions and Verification
Finally, the writer concludes the research finding. This stage is the final part of
conclusions and suggestions.

Women at Point Zero is a novel by Nawal El Saadawi and he was
published in 1983. The book was first published in London. It was the at major
work of fiction to be produced by Nawal El Sadawi and translater by Sherif hitata.
This novel is an Initially, Egyptian publishers rejected the book and the first
edition was published in Lebanon in 1985. Woman at Point Zero has subsequently
been published in twenty-two languages. The English language translation was
originally published in 1983 by Zed Books Ltd. in London and Room 400 in New
York.
She began research on neurosis in Egyptian women, during which she met
a doctor at Qanatir Prison who talked to her about the inmates, including a female
prisoner who had killed a man and had been sentenced to hanging. Saadawi was
interested in meeting the woman and visiting the prison, and her colleague
arranged for her to conduct her research at Qanatir Prison in the autumn of 1974.
Saadawi visited many women in the cell block and in the mental clinic and was
able to conduct twenty-one in-depth case studies for her 1976 publication, Women
377 378 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 and Neurosis in Egypt, but Firdaus remained, a woman apart. Firdaus was
executed in 1974, but she left a lasting impact on Saadawi, who said she could not
rest until she'd written about Firdaus' story and finished the novel in one week.
Saadawi describes Firdaus as a martyr and says she admires her because, "Few
people are ready to face death for a principle. Later, when Saadawi was
imprisoned in Qanatir in 1981 for political offenses, she reflected that she would
find herself looking for Firdaus among the prison population, unable to believe
that the woman who had inspired her so much was truly dead.
The writer presents the previous study that deals with the study of this
novel. There are others writers who conducted different studies of the women at
point zero for their thesis. The thesis of charity Izzumi Isaka (2010) entitled the
Situation of the Women in Patriarchal African society: A Study of Nawal El
Saadawi’s God Dies by The Nile and Women at Point Zero. Fwangyil, Gloria Ada
(2012) in his thesis entitled Cradle to Grave: an Analysis of Female Oppression
in Nawal El Saadawi’s Woman at Point Zero. Priccilia Wulan Agustin (2011) in
her thesis entitled Fighting Patriarchy Woment at Point Zero by Nawal El
Saadawi. Christine Rene, in her thesis entitled A Study on Men’s Oppression and
its Effect toward Firdaus which Leads to Her Search for Self Esteem in Nawal El
Saadawi’s Women at Point Zero. Francesca Coin (2006) in her thesis entitled On

The word feminist as a word gained widespread usage in the western
world’s in the 1890s. “It emerged at this time as a way to identity individuals who
supported not merely an increased public role women but also women’s right to
define themselves as autonomous beings” (Mandell, 1995: 4). According to the
Wood (2009: 3) feminism is defined as a movement for social, political, and
economic equality of women and men. The other definition about feminism is
centrally concerned with sex as an organizing principle of social life which is
thoroughly saturated with power relations.
B. RESEARCH METHOD
In this research, the writer uses a qualitative research. The steps to conduct
this research are determining the type of the study, the object of the study, data
and data source, technique of data collection, and technique of data analysis. The
object of the study Female Violence reflected at Nawal El Saadawi’s Women at
Point Zero (1983) by using Feminist Approach.
There are two data sources needed to do this research, namely: primary
data sources and secondary data sources. The primary data sources are directed
study Female Violence Women at Point Zero (1983) by Nawal El Saadawi. The
secondary data sources are other sources related to the study, such as: website,
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 379 dictionary, some books that support the analysis. The technique of data analysis,
the writer used take notes as the method of collection data in this research. The
technique of data analysis is descriptive analysis.
C. FINDING and DISCUSSION
After analyzing this novel, the researcher found some research findings. The
research findings will be discussed below.
1. Women’s Position
The main character, Firdaus, a give up of male subordination is a
symbol of a harassed and powerless woman in a society in which women
have limited options. Firdaus is performance prototypes as a persecuted and
lower-class female farmer image. While these descriptions point to the
disturbing psychological effects and emotional injure inflicted by the
different forms of male oppression represented in the text, they raise
questions about the narrator’s dependability as an important narrative voice
because of her extremely selfish language. Her closing words on men ring
with a dim pessimism: “My life means their death. My death means their life
(WAPZ, p.100).
When one of his female children died, my father would eat his
supper, my mother would wash his legs, and then he would go to
sleep, just as he did every night. When the child that died was a boy,
he would beat my mother, then have his supper and lie down to sleep
(WAPZ, p.18). .
My father never went to bed without supper, no matter what
happened. Sometimes when there was no food at home we would all
go to bed with empty stomachs. But he world never fail to have a
meal. My mother would hide his food froum us at the bottom of one
of the holes in the oven. He would sit eating alone while we watched
him. One evening I dared to stretch out my hand to his plate, but he
struck me a sharp blow over the back of my fingers (WAPZ, p.18-19).
At the first time, women’s position in the society described in this
novel is under man. As a child, Firdaus’s uncle uses any opportunity he has to
exploit. Her aunt and uncle view her as a useless burden after her graduation,
and marry her off to the elderly Sheikh Mahmoud.
‘Supposing she refuses’?
‘Why should she refuse him?... besides she has inherited nothing, and
has
380 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 no income of her own. We will never find a better husband for her
than Sheikh
Mahmoud’
‘Do you think Sheikh Mahmoud will welcome the idea?’
‘If I speak to him I am sure he will agree. I intend to ask him for a big
dowry.’
‘How much?’
‘A hundred pound or perhaps even two hundred if he has the money.’
‘If he pays a hundred pound then Allah will indeed have been
generous to us
and I would not be greedy to ask for more.’
‘I will start with two hundred. You know he is a man who can argue
for hours
over five millimes and kill himself over a piaster.’
‘If he pays one hundred pounds that will be sufficient blessing from
Allah. I will be able to pay my debt and buy some underwear as well
as a dress or two for her’(WAPZ, p.37).
And then after Firdaus married with Sheikh Mahmoud, Firdaus to
show that women’s position still under man in advance. But Firdaus get
oppression lives with Sheikh Mahmoud.
The day came when I depart from my uncle’s house and
live with Sheikh Mahmoud. Now I slept on a comfortable bed
instead of the wooden couch. But no sooner did I stretch out my
body on it to rest from the fatigue of cooking, and washing and
cleaning the large house with its rooms full of furniture, than
Sheikh Mahmoud would appear by my side. He was already over
sixty, whereas I had not yet turned nineteen (WAPZ, p.43).
On one occasion he hit me all over with his shoe. My face
and body became swollen and bruised. So I left the house and went
to my uncle. But my uncle told me that all husbands beat their
wives, and my uncle’s wife added that her husband often beat her. I
said my uncle was a respected Sheikh, well versed in the teachings
of religion, and he, therefore, could not possibly be in the habit of
beating his wife. She replied that it was precisely men well versed
in their religion who beat their wives. The precepts of religion
permitted such punishment. A virtuous women was not supposed
to complain about your husband. Her duty was perfect obedience
(WAPZ, p.44).
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 381 Firdaus reflected figure in the women power stronger in this novel.
But, Firdaus has a feeling that a woman was powerless. In this situation
Firdaus gives a say about this not good from policemen.
At the first I could see nothing, but a moment later I glimpsed a
policemen approaching in the dark. He came right up to me, caught
me by the arm, and said:
‘Where are you doing?’
‘I don’t know.’
‘Will you came with me?’
‘where to?’
‘To my house.’
‘No... I have no trust in men any more.’
I opened my small bag, and showed him my secondary school
certificate. I told him I was looking for a job with my secondary, or
even with my primary school certificate. That if Idid not find
something this way, I was prepered to do any work.
He said, ‘ I’II pay you. Don’t think I want to have you for nothing. I
am not a like Policemen. How much do you want?’
‘How much do you I want? I don’t know.’
‘Don’t play game with me, and don’t try to haggle with me either, or
I’II take you off to the police station (WAPZ, p. 62).
2. Women’s Role
In the context of the Women at Point Zero, Nawal El Saadawi
creates a major Character named Firdaus as a figure a women. Living
wage in men domination, women usually are limited to do the whole thing
that they can. Women that’s their disabilities are unspecified not capable to
full be taking and partnership role. It means that women are always
associated with domestic role: their roles as daughter, wife, and mother.
Women public role a women decides to work external the house they will
face many form of oppression from their husband or father and from the
government in that place.
Another character is Firdaus’s father. He signifies the severity of
the unlimited powers men have in patriarchal societies. He is presented as
an insensitive and an abused man who would do anything to wield power
in the home.
382 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 In summer I would see her sitting at his feet with a thin mug in
her hand as she washed his legs with cold water. When I grew a
little older, my father put the mug in my hand and taught me how
to wash his legs with water. (WAPZp.16)
Firdaus give injustice from Uncle. Uncle Firdaus attend classes in
E Azhar, and study at a time when Firdaus was still a child and had no yet
learned to read or write.
When my uncle would clamber into the train, and bit me farewell,
I would cry and beg him to take witj him to Cairo. But my uncle
would ask,
‘What will you do in Cairo, Firdaus?’
And I would reply: ‘I will go to El Azhar and study like you’
Then he would laugh and exxplain that El Azhar was only for
men. And I would cry , and hold on to his hand, as the train
started to move.but he would pull it away with a force and
suddenness that made me fall flat on my face (WAPZ, p.16).
.
For a long time, Firdaus had qualified “self-definition” as a
problem. Self expansion was an unfilled view for Firdaus. For most of her
life, Firdaus had been treated as an object. She had been sexually
physically abused as a kid, as a wife, and as a prostitute. Her uncle
molested her and arranged her marriage. Her husband used her body as an
object for his own hunger. Like a hungry man who cleans the dish,
Firdaus’ body was her husband’s food. In this live with Sheikh Mahmoud,
Firdaus be hard done by Sheikh Mahmoud as servant.
One day hit me with his heavy stick unti the blood ran from my
nose and ears. So, I left, but this time I did not go to my uncle’s
house. I walked through the streets with swollen eyes, and a
bruised face, but no one paid any attention to me (WAPZ, p.45).
The behavior of Sheik Mahmoud is a pointer to the fact that any
society which tries to forbid or reject women their rights ends up achieving
nothing but a crowd of ills and problems that have in trouble their societies
to the lowest of the low, in the form of pain and desertion on the part of
women. Therefore it could be said that pain and abandonment associated
with rejection is often the result of such relationships and not the happiness
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 383 that it is supposed to create for both social gathering concerned in the
marriage.
Her come backs to her uncle’s house hopeful to find support but
when Firdaus complains, her uncle simply tells her that "all husbands beat
their wives” (WAPZ, p.69) and her uncle's wife disclose to being flattened
often. Her aunt tells her: "A virtuous woman is not supposed to complain
about her husband. Her duty is perfect obedience.”(WAPZ, p.70).Firdaus
cannot believe this and argues with her: "I said my uncle was a respected
Sheikh, well versed in the teachings of religion, and he, therefore, could
not possibly be in the habit of beating his wife."(WAPZ, p.71) However,
her aunt replies ironically that it was "precisely men well versed in their
religion who beat their wives. The precepts of religion permitted such
punishment."(WAPZ, p.72).
3. Women’s Right
Women’s right is the importance of education for women.
Education imparts knowledge, discernment, exposure and self esteem. El
Saadawi shows how much Firdaus struggles to be educated and how as
often, she was frustrated. Firdaus give injustice from Uncle. Uncle Firdaus
attend classes in E Azhar, and study at a time when Firdaus was still a
child and had no yet learned to read or write.
When my uncle would clamber into the train, and bit me farewell, I
would cry and beg him to take witj him to Cairo. But my uncle
would ask,
‘What will you do in Cairo, Firdaus?’
And I would reply: ‘I will go to El Azhar and study like you’
Then he would laugh and explain that El Azhar was only for men.
And I would cry , and hold on to his hand, as the train started to
move. But he would pull it away with a force and suddenness that
made me fall flat on my face (WAPZ, p.16).
Firdaus was not yet nineteen when she was married to Sheikh
Mahmoud, an over-sixty, physically hideous man with a tumor on his lip.
Her uncle arranged her marriage, and made sure that Firdaus would serve
her husband dinner, cook for him, and share his bed and his familiarity.
Throughout her marriage, Firdaus was often abused and punished. On
many occasions her husband would hit her violently. One time he punished
her for throwing away a little piece of food.
384 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 Firdaus becomes the reactive agent in a study about her in which
she is rendered irrelevant and therefore her voice is silenced. Unspoken
and reactive, she is leaved an object, hence allowing her uncle and his wife
to make decisions for her. By deciding what Firdaus needs, even in a most
personal way, her uncle, a respected sheik and his wife do not only
humiliate her but also are opposed to the natural rights of individuals to be
free of any form of subjugation.
One day he hit me with his heavy sticks until the blood ran from
my nose and ear. So, I left, but this time I did not go to my uncle’s
house. I walked through the streets with swollen eyes, and a
bruised face, but no one paid any attention to me. People were
rushing around in buses and in cars, or on foot. It was as though
they were bind, unable to see anything. The street was an endless
expanse stretched out before my eyes like a sea. I was just a pebble
thrown into it, battered by the waves, tossed here and there, rolling
over and over to be abandoned somewhere on the shore. After
some time I was worn not out by walking, so I sat down to rest on
an empty chair that I suddenly came upon placed upright on the
pavement (WAPZ, p. 45).
Living wage on the road was a new form of liberty for Firdaus.
Lastly she could buy her own food. She could eat from a plate where no
one had already eaten before. She could say no male right. But she had to
make her living by promotion herself as a prostitute. The preposterous
posture taken and the double moral standards of society are demonstrated
in the character of government officials who patronize prostitutes. The
absurdity such public figure personifies, generous nothing to people like
Firdaus in terms of self-respect yet expecting something from her body is
disparage. Firdaus explains how a president sends his body guard to lure
her for him:
Once he offered me money, on another occasion, he
threatened me with prison, on still a third; he explained to me that
refusing a head of state could be looked as an insult to a great man
and lead to strained relations between the two countries. He added
that if I really loved my country, if I were a patriot I would go to
him at once. (WAPZ, p.98).
Important personalities want prostitutes in their bed like any
common pimp would do and yet a talk in dignified tone of patriotism and
moral principle is used. It is made to seem as if “where national duty was
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 385 concerned, a prostitute is awarded the highest honour and murder could
become an act of heroism.” (WAPZ, p.99)
Firdaus becomes a rich and successful as prostitute, she draws the
wicked notice of a man who wants to exploit her work in exchange for
protection. Firdaus describes her relationship to her pimp as the
relationship of a slave to a master: Firdaus had to work for him for days
and nights without pay. He would take her money and hold her prisoner.
“You will never leave me”, he threatened her (WAPZ, p. 95). Firdaus
could not conceal from him. She could not get away.
The killing of the pimp has a liberating effect on Firdaus: such
violent action was Firdaus’ first action as a subject. Almost a symbolic act
for Firdaus’ emancipation, such violent, oppression, subjugation action
presented her freedom, and it allowed Firdaus to find her own identity.
4. Women’s Participation
In this Novel Women at Point Zero, this situations about the novel.
Firdaus gets nature power for long-life. Firdaus has a spirits and powers.
Although Firdaus loves education, she is denied access to it because it
is regarded as the sole preserve of the men.
Sometimes I imagined that I would become a doctor, or an
engineer, or lawyer or a judge. And one day the whole school went
out on the streets to join a big demonstration against the
government. Suddenly I found myself riding high up on the
shoulders of the girls shouting,
‘Down with government.’
When I got back to school my voice was hoarse, my hair in
disarray, and my clothes were torn in several places, but all through
the night I kept imagining myself as a great leader or head of state
(WAPZ, p.25).
Firdaus knows that women did not become heads of the state. She
was discovered these entire rulers were man. Firdaus cannot an
opportunities to work about with the government.
I knew that women did not become heads of state, but I felt that I
was not like other women, nor like the other girls around me who
386 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 kept talking about love, or about men. For these were subject I
never mentioned. Somehow I was not interested in the things that
occupied their minds, and what seemed of importance to them
struck me as being trivial (WAPZ, p.25).
I discovered that all theses rulers were men. What they had
in common was an avaricious and distorted personality, am neverending appetite for money, sex and unlimited power. They were
men who showed corruption on the earth, and plundered their
peoples, men endowed with loud voices a capacity for persuasion,
for choosing sweet words and shooting poisoned arrows. Thus, the
truth about them was revealed only after their death, and as a result
I discovered that history tended to repeat itself with a foolish
obstinacy (WAPZ, p.27).
Firdaus becomes a rich and successful as prostitute, she draws the
wicked notice of a man who wants to exploit her work in exchange for
protection. Firdaus describes her relationship to her pimp as the
relationship of a slave to a master: Firdaus had to work for him for days
and nights without pay. He would take her money and hold her prisoner.
“You will never leave me”, he threatened her (WAPZ, p. 95). Firdaus
could not hide from him. She could not escape. He would beat her and
abuse her. On a lonely night, exasperated by abuse and despair, Firdaus
raises her hands against him and penetrates his body with a knife.
I raised the knife and buried it deep in his neck, pulled it out of his
neck and then thrust it deep into his chest, pulled it out of his chest
and plunged it deep into his belly. I stuck the knife into almost
every part of his body. I was astonished to find how easily my hand
moved as I thrust the knife into his flesh, and pulled it out almost
without effort (WAPZ, p. 95).
5. Female Violence
A child, uncles uses any opportunity he has to exploit her sexually.
While she is manipulate dough to heat for family use, her uncle,
under the guise of reading a book, rubs her thighs and gradually moves
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 387 upwards to her private part. He only stops when he hears a sound or
movement and ‘I would watch them as they continue to press against my
thighs with a grasping almost brutal insistence” (WAPZ, p.13) when
silence is restored to the situation.
She pronounced the last word and then immediately dropped
fast sleep. My eyes remained wide open, staring into the darkness.
Slowly, distant, half-forgotten images started to emerge from the
night. I saw Mohammadatain lying on a bed of straw under to open
seller. The smell of the straw crept up my nose, and the touch of his
finger moved over my body. My whole my body shuddered with a
far away yet familiar pleasure arising from some unknown source,
from some indefinable spot outside my being. And yet I could feel it
somewhere in my body, a gentle pulsation beginning like a tender
pleasure, and ending like a tender pain. Something I tried to hold on
to, to touch if only for a moment, but it slipped away from me like
the air, like an illusion, or a dream that floats away and is lost. I wept
in my sleep as though it was something I was losing now: a loss I
was experiencing for the first time and not something I had lost a
long time ago (WAPZ, p.26).
This understanding is masterminded by her uncle’s wife who
complains that ‘the house is too small and life is expensive. She eats twice
as much as any of our children‟ (WAPZ, p.35 ). This is in spite of Firdaus
obvious importance to the house in supporting with the daily are domestic
household tasks. Although she runs from the house when she
overhears this plan, she returns home to be married to Sheik Mahmoud
when she discovers that the society she belongs to does not have a safe
haven for children who require parental be in love with, be concerned, and
security, and whose human rights are violated. She later suffers physical,
emotional and verbal abuse in her wedding. She is forced to marry an old
man and goes throughout embarrassing experiences. After Firdaus suffers
a cruel beating in the hands of Shiek Mahmoud, her husband, she runs to
her uncle for support.
On one occasion he hit me all over with his shoe. My face
and body became swollen and bruised. So I left the house and went
to my uncle. But my uncle told me that all husbands beat their
wives, and my uncle’s wife added that her husband often beat her. I
said my uncle was a respected Sheikh, well versed in the teachings
of religion, and he, therefore, could not possibly be in the habit of
beating his wife. She replied that it was precisely men well versed
in their religion who beat their wives. The precepts of religion
permitted such punishment. A virtuous woman was not supposed to
complain about your husband. Her duty was perfect obedience
(WAPZ, p.44).
388 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 a. Prostitution
Firdaus is a famous prostitute that hates men, kings, princes and
rulers, gender and class oppressors. Her parents passed away when she
was a young person, and after their death she was sent to live with her
protective uncle in Cairo.
After Firdaus run away to the streets from her husband’s
violence, she meets Bayoumi, a coffee shop owner. He initially offers
to help Firdaus and shows her kindness and care. He accommodates her
in his apartment and provides her crucial wants. When Firdaus
expresses the wish to get a job instead of sitting at home all day,
this is how she expresses her worrying experience in the hands of
Bayoumi:
He jumped up and slapped me on my face… His hand was
big and strong and was the heaviest slap I had ever received on my
face… The next moment he hit me with his fist in the belly until I
lost consciousness immediately (WAPZ, p.51).
In order to make sure that Firdaus does not run away from
the house, Bayoumi locks her in the room until he returns from
his coffee shop. A neighbor helps her to escape by calling a
carpenter to break the door. While on the streets, she meets Sharifa
Salah el Dine, an old professional prostitute, and is introduced to
prostitution. In spite of being a prostitute, Firdaus is sexually abused
by men from all walks of life.
Sharifa said to me one day, ‘Neither Bayoumi, nor any
of his cronies realized your worth, because you failed to value
yourself highly enough. A man does not know a women’s value,
Firdaus. She is the one who determines her value. The higher
you price yourself, the more he will realize what you are really
worth, and be prepared to pay with the means at his disposal
(WAPZ, p. 55).
She suffers this persecute daily until she decides to run away. Although
Firdaus resorts to prostitution in order to free her from man’s control
and sexual exploitation.
Still as a prostitute, Marzouk, a pimp, pressures
Firdaus. He tells her that ,every prostitute has a pimp to
Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 389 protect her from other pimps, and from the police….You
cannot do without protection, otherwise the profession
exercised by husbands and pimps would die out… I may be
obliged to threaten’ (WAPZ,p.92) Firdaus.
I thought I had escaped from men but the man who came
this time practiced a well known male profession. He was a
pimp. I thought I could buy him off with a sum of money, the
way I did with the police. But he refused the money and insisted
on sharing my earnings. I went to the police only to discover
that he had more connections than I. Then I had recourse to
legal proceedings, I found out that the law punishes women
like me, but turns a blind eye to what men do (WAPZ, p.92).
b. Sexual Harassment
After Firdaus tries to protect her without success, she agrees to
share her earnings with Marzouk and he takes the larger share.
he was a dangerous pimp who controlled a number
of prostitutes, and I was one of them. He had friends
everywhere, and in all professions, on whom he spent his money
generously. He had a doctor friend to whom he had recourse if
one of the prostitutes became pregnant and needed an
abortion, a friend in the police who protected him from
raids, a friend in the courts who used his knowledge and
position to keep him out of trouble and release any of the
prostitutes who found herself in goal, so that she was not held up
from earning money for too long. I realized that I was not
nearly as free as I had hit her to imagined myself to be. I was
nothing but a body machine working day and night so that a
number of men belonging to different professions could become
immensely rich at my expense. I was no longer even mistress
of the house for which I had paid with my sweat (WAPZ, p.94).
Firdaus, first leaves prostitution and begin working in a company,
some of the men in the company to sleep with her. The other female
workers succumb to the pressures from the men in order to gain
positive discrimination.
word went round that I was a honorable woman, a highly
respected official, in fact the most honorable, and the most
highly considered of all the female officials in the company.
It was also said that none of the men had succeeded in
breaking my pride and that not a single high ranking official had
been able to make me bow my head, or lower my head to the
ground (WAPZ, p.76).
390 Seminar Nasional Kajian Bahasa dan Pengajarannya (KBSP) IV 2016 c. Rape and Sexual Assault
In spite of the fact that Firdaus is raped and sexually exploited by
Bayoumi, he also allows his friends to abuse her sexually.
He took a locking me in the flat before going out. I now
slept on the floor in the other room. He would come back in the
middle of the night, pull the cover away from me, slap my face, and
then bear down on me with all his weight. I kept my eyes closed
and abandoned my body. It lay there under him without movement,
emptied of all desire, or pleasure, or even pain, feeling nothing. A
dead body with no life in it at all, likes a piece of wood, or an
empty sock, or a shoe. Then one night his body seemed heavier
than before, and his breath smelt different, so I opened my eyes.
The face above me was not Bayoumi (WAPZ, p.50).
D. Discussion
The analysis of the main character, Firdaus, a give up of male
subordination is a symbol of a harassed and powerless woman in a society in
which women have limited options. Women’s position in the society described in
this novel is under man. As a child, Firdaus’s uncle uses any opportunity he has to
exploit. Her aunt and uncle view her as a useless burden after her graduation, and
marry her off to the elderly Sheikh Mahmoud.
And then after Firdaus married with Sheikh Mahmoud, Firdaus to show
that women’s position still under man in advance. But Firdaus get oppression
lives with Sheikh Mahmoud.
In the context of the Women at Point Zero, Nawal El Saadawi creates a
major Character named Firdaus as a figure a women. Living wage in men
domination, women usually are limited to do the whole thing that they can.
Women that’s their disabilities are unspecified not capable to full be taking and
partnership role. It means that women are always associated with domestic role:
their roles as daughter, wife, and mother. Women public role a women decides to
work external the house they will face many form of oppression from their
husband or father and from the government in that place.
E. CONLUSIONS
After analyzing Women at Point Zero novel, the researcher describes the
folowing conclusion. Based on feminist Approach, it shows that Women at Point
Zero novel illustrates a Firadaus how a woman is able patriarchal culture, Firdaus
as prostitution and get sexual harassment
